Looking for a way to save money for your children or grandchildren, nieces and nephews? Look at MIF4KIDZ.
MIF4KIDZ investments are a great way to set aside money for college or other needs while teaching children good stewardship and money management. MIF4KIDZ investments make ideal gifts for baptisms, graduations, birthdays or Christmas, and, at an APY of 2.10%, they pay far more than a traditional savings account would pay.

Joel Wudel Appointed Mission Investment Fund
Regional Manager
Joel S. Wudel is the Regional Manager for the Mission Investment Fund in the Eastern Washington - Idaho Synod. He succeeds Margie Fiedler, who returned to camping as the executive director of Flathead Lutheran Bible Camp in Lakeside, Montana.

The Mission Investment Fund, a financial ministry of the ELCA, offers a variety of investments for congregations, their members and ELCA-related ministries to purchase. MIF uses these investments to make low-interest loans to established ELCA congregations, new-start congregations and ELCA-related ministries for important capital projects. Loans by the Mission Investment Fund fuel growth of our church.
Whether you are seeking investment opportunities for yourself or your congregation, or a loan for capital improvements for your congregation or ministry, contact Joel at joel.wudel@elca.org or call him at 773-682-1765.
