How we help members

The APM Foundation offers a thorough approach to lifetime financial and stewardship planning. Our mission is to educate and help Christians design and carry out a plan to achieve their life’s goals while being a responsible steward of God’s money. The process is called “Planning With a Purpose”.

APM financial educators are true planners, not investment advisors, stock brokers or salespeople. We have nothing to sell and working off of a lifetime endowment, there are no charges for our services. Before beginning your plan, we get to know you personally to understand your hopes and dreams as well as your financial picture, the good and bad. We believe that every financial decision is a spiritual decision because everything belongs to God and has been placed in our hands to manage responsibly. We have developed a thorough process to help each member understand their purpose, then design, implement and continually update their plan.

The APM team is made up of highly experienced and skilled professionals who are thoroughly grounded in Biblical principles. APM a non-profit Christian foundation and is not tied to any financial company. We are able to focus on serving the church members’ best interests because we are not motivated by sales managers, money, commissions or fees. Funds that might be generated by helping a Christian link up with a trusted financial provider and implement a plan go directly to the mission field.

Our planning process includes 4 important steps:

• Step 1: Getting to know the your story
  We’ll spend the time necessary to get to know each member, their spiritual values, goals and dreams. We’ll review each financial situation to see where the member is today and map their plan to their goals and future.

• Step 2: Analyzing each situation
  APM’s analysis will give a clear picture of where each member stands today on accomplishing his goals and meeting his family and church obligations. It will point out pitfalls in the path and show how to protect from financial disasters and emergencies. It will analyze ways to achieve short-term, mid-term and long-term objectives and point out the pro’s and con’s of various strategies.

• Step 3: Revising and implementing the plan
  APM planners will assist in making any needed revisions to the plan, year after year. That will help members achieve their goals and purpose in life to the end of their days. All with the peace of mind God intended.

• Step 4: Continual Monitoring
  We’ll help keep a close eye on each plan as it develops throughout the years. We’re available as a financial partner and spiritual mentor in keeping members on track in fulfilling their life’s dreams and God’s plan for their lives. Our mission is to help Christians achieve financial peace of mind and accomplish their purpose in life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Making sure they don't run out of money

A 67-year-old couple had done an excellent job of saving for their retirement, but they were worried. Their question was simple. Did they have enough to last the rest of their life. Their question was about having a steady income for life, but they didn't realize it at the time.

How APM Provided Their Solution

APM put together a plan for the couple that first insured their saved money against loss in the stock market. Second, their funds were used to set up a program that provided them an income they can not outlive. Any remainder will be left to their heirs.

The couple now has more income than before their new plan and it is guaranteed to last the rest of their lift. And they did not have to take on any stock market risk to get the benefits they needed. Truly, peace of mind for this couple.
