Southern Union Revolving Fund (SURF)
Effective February 1, 2026: Demand Notes: 3.5%, Loans: 5%
The purpose of SURF is to provide low-cost loans to churches and other institutions across the Southern Union Conference while providing a reasonable rate of return to investors. Any member of the Southern Union is able to open a SURF account through their local conference. This opportunity allows members of the Southern Union to not only receive a reasonable rate of return but also to invest in the mission of the educational institutions and eight conferences across the Southern Union. SURF is considered a 90-day demand note. This means withdrawals from the fund could take up to ninety days to be fulfilled.
