CBFNC Endowment Trust

Lolley Fund - Support Theological Education through the Randall and Lou Lolley Endowment Fund for Theological Education




Most Christians are familiar with the idea that financial giving is an aspect of Christian discipleship. We are reminded from the pulpit and other avenues that Jesus talked more about money and possessions than about heaven and hell. When it comes to this topic, we usually focus on giving a portion of our income to the church and other religious and charitable causes. Christian giving doesnt end with our death, however. Most of us have the capacity to give financial gifts that will continue to support Gods mission long after we breathe our last breath. The CBFNC Endowment Trust was created to provide persons with the opportunity to engage in this kind of eternal financial stewardship. When contributions are made to the endowment trust, they are invested in such a way as to produce a return in perpetuity. In other words, these kinds of gifts really are gifts that never stop giving.

Currently, the CBFNC Endowment Trust has three funds:
~ General Fund The proceeds from this fund are not restricted and can be used at the discretion of the Coordinating Council for a variety of ministry needs.
~ New Church Starts Fund The proceeds from this fund will be used for planting new congregations.
~ Theological Education Fund The proceeds from this fund will be used to support theological education, a significant portion of which will provide scholarships for theological students. In 2008, we will launch a major campaign to promote this fund, which will include naming the fund for a leading North Carolina theological educator.
