Sharing Blessings: A Blessing for Eternity

Purpose

What is the Endowment Fund?

The Zion Endowment Fund (ZEF) is a pool of assets gifted to the fund and managed to produce income.  The Endowment principle is intended to continue in perpetuity, with a portion of the earnings allocated to special ministries and the remainder reinvested. 

The ZEF is administered by the Lutheran Foundation of Texas (LFOT), an Austin-based supportive ministry of the Texas District of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod.
