Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Investment Management
The investment ethics of the church are patterned after the "Three Simple Rules" of John Wesley. First, "do no harm." This rule compels us to not investment in companies with core business activities that are not aligned with the Social Principles. Wesley’s second rule to "do good" is captured in this directive to invest in companies surpassing the average practices and policies of their peers within the categories of "Environmental, Social, and Governance" (ESG). The result promotes the third rule to "stay in love with God" through increased focus on the church’s mission and ministry.
