Stewards Canada is a registered Canadian charity dedicated to providing mortgage financing to evangelical Christian assemblies, churches, schools, nursing facilities, camps and other ministries. Banks are generally reluctant to lend to churches due to donations being the sole source of income. When they do grant loans, they are generally at higher interest rates with strict conditions in order to offset the perception of higher risk. In contrast, Stewards Canada offers standard mortgage interest rates and more lenient mortgage terms because of our familiarity with church financing, our history with churches and our care in ensuring that mortgage security is sufficient to cover the loan amount.
