Certificates of Devotion

As was suggested at the September Congregational Meeting, Certificates of Devotion are now available in denominations of $100.00.  These CD's can be purchased by seeing Pam Page, Dale Nelson, or dropping a check in the offering on Sunday noting "Certificate of Devotion" in the memo field.  These certificates will reach maturity after a 5 year period, earning 1.5% interest a year.  To be eligible to earn interest, the certificate must be purchased by December 31st of the previous year.  Example, in order to earn interest for 2007, the certificate must be purchased by December 31, 2006.
