ELCA Insurance Program for Congregations Under Development

All congregations under development, including synodically authorized worshiping communities, under the auspices of the ELCA Division for Outreach are provided insurance coverage under the ELCA Mission Investment Fund Insurance Program.

This insurance provides commercial liability coverage and personal property coverage for each congregation as long as the congregation is worshiping in a rented or leased facility. This insurance does not provide insurance coverage for real estate property, directors and officers liability, or workers compensation coverage. It is suggested that the congregation review these areas of insurance coverage with their local insurance broker.

For further information, please contact:

This insurance coverage is available to all mission congregations until such time as the congregation assume occupancy of their own church building. Once a congregation acquires ownership of their worship facility they are no longer covered under the ELCA Mission Investment Fund program and must obtain their own insurance coverage.
