STEWARDSHIP WELL DONE
FM Financial provides professional planning, investing, and giving services for individuals and organizations from a biblical perspective. It is the financial services ministry of The Free Methodist Church – USA.
Welcome to FM Financial
FM Financial was founded in 1986 to provide professional financial guidance and investment management to individuals and organizations from a biblical perspective. With assets under management now exceeding $600 million, we offer a full range of services to help you plan with purpose, invest with discipline, and give with joy. Together, we believe these principles lead to a life of Stewardship Well Done.
Each member of our team is a qualified professional who cares about stewardship and mission as much as returns and retirement. By leading with a Kingdom mindset, applying exemplary business practices, and serving with excellence, we are committed to helping you faithfully manage the resources entrusted to your care.
In order to provide a full array of professional planning, investing, and giving services to individuals and organizations while remaining compliant with various financial service industry regulations, some services are offered through the Free Methodist Investment and Loan Fund, GuideStream Financial, and GuideStream Charitable Gift Fund.
FM Financial is the financial services ministry of The Free Methodist Church – USA.
