PART I

Item 1.  Description of Business

The Company

   The Company, Ministry Partners Investment Corporation, is a California
 corporation, formed in October, 1991, for the sole purpose of investing in
 or purchasing existing loans to qualified church organizations.  The
 Company was formed by and is currently the wholly-owned subsidiary of ECCU.
 See "BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY - ECCU and Its Relationship to the Company."

   The Company is a taxable organization under both federal and California
 state law.  ECCU is a mutual benefit corporation and is presently exempt
 from federal but not California state income tax.

   The Company was organized for the purpose (mission) of providing funds
 for real property secured loans for the benefit of Evangelical churches and
 church organizations through funding provided by members of and persons
 associated with such churches and organizations.  In accordance with its
 mission, the Company operates with a view towards providing the highest
 practical yields to its investors in relation to the yields it realizes on
 its Mortgage Loan investments and its operating, general and administrative
 costs.  As the Company's sole shareholder, ECCU has not, and does not intend
 in the future to cause the Company to operate with a view towards
 maximizing profit.  The Company's primary goal will be to continue to
 provide funds for secured loans to Evangelical churches and church
 organizations on a cost effective basis both for the Company and such
 borrowers.






   The Company is one of the few institutions or agencies within the
 western United States organized to assist local evangelical Christian
 church congregations and organizations to provide financing for the
 acquisition, development and/or renovation of churches or church-related
 properties.  Historically, through the sale of its debt
 securities to persons affiliated with evangelical Christian churches
 and organizations, the Company has given these persons the opportunity
 to jointly and indirectly provide their organizations with such
 financing, something they may not have been able to accomplish
 individually.  To date, the Company has suffered no defaults under any
 of its mortgage loans nor has the Company defaulted on or been
 delinquent in the payment of any interest or principal on the notes it
 has sold to investors.

   To date, the Company's investments have been financed by ECCU's
 investment in the Company's common stock and through the sale of its
 collateralized and uncollateralized notes.  The Company's Mortgage
 Loan Investments have been facilitated through a warehouse credit line
 from ECCU.  This credit line financing is currently in the amount of
 $2,100,000.  This credit line, which the Company intends to maintain
 indefinitely, is subject to ECCU's standard commercial loan
 requirements, including blanket liens on the Company's assets.  ECCU
 has agreed to subordinate this loan to the payment of its Class A and Class
 A-1 Notes. There is no assurance that ECCU will be able to continue to
 provide this credit line to the Company in the future.

   The Company currently employs three full-time persons.  ECCU provides the
 Company with certain services for which ECCU charges the Company on a current
 basis.

Reports

   The Company has filed with the Commission a Registration Statement on
 Form SB-2 (including all amendments thereto, the "Registration Statement"),
 with respect to its Class A-1 notes.  For further information about the
 Company and its Securities, reference is made to the Registration Statement

 report, the Company will be required to file such reports with the
 Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") as it may be required
 to file pursuant to the Exchange Act by reason of Section 15(d) thereof.
 The Company is not otherwise subject to the information requirements of the
 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and in
 accordance therewith does not otherwise file reports, proxy statements and
 other information with the Commission.  Any reports, proxy statements and
 other information filed by the Company in accordance with the Exchange
 Act can be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities

   None.

PART II

Item 5.  Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

   The Company has 100,000 shares of its common stock outstanding, all of
 which shares are owned by Evangelical Christian Credit Union, 1150 N.
 Magnolia Avenue, Anaheim, California 92801.  These shares are not traded
 publicly.  None of the Company's officers or directors beneficially owns
 any of these shares.  The Company does not have outstanding any options,
 warrants or convertible securities.  No other rights to purchase securities
 of the Company have been issued.

Item 6.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Operations

   The financial information included herein should be read in conjunction
 with the Financial Statements, including the Notes thereto.

   The Company's plan of business consists of the offer and sale of debt
 obligations to investors on a continuous basis to provide funds for the
 Company's mortgage loan investments.  Management believes that its strategy
 for maintaining liquidity will enable it to timely service and retire the
 Notes regardless of the maturity mix of the Notes outstanding.

















   Management intends to continue the Company's current liquidity plan
 which relies primarily on funds from operations, cash reserves and
 borrowings under the ECCU Credit Line to pay interest and principal on its
 debt securities on a timely basis.  Historically, these sources have provided
 sufficient funds for the Company's timely payment of debt security
 obligations and it has not been required or attempted to obtain funds from
 the sale or hypothecation of its Mortgage Loan investments.  Historically,
 the Company has experienced significant rates of reinvestment or renewal by
 its debt security investors upon maturity of their investments.  Thus, these
 sources may not continue to provide sufficient liquidity in the event the
 Company does not experience comparable reinvestment rates on the Notes.  Even
 so, management believes that the Company can realize sufficient funds from
 its ECCU Credit Line and/or the sale or hypothecation of its Mortgage Loan
 investments, should additional funds be necessary to repay the Company's debt
 securities as they mature.  Management bases this belief on the size and
 quality of the Company's Mortgage Loan investments, the availability of
 purchasers of those assets on a timely basis and a historic price (at or near
 par) paid for secured loans comparable to the Company's Mortgage Loan
 investments.

   Management believes that it can continue to achieve profitable
 margins between interest revenues and interest expenses irrespective of
 fluctuating interest rates or inflation based on the adjustment of interest
 rates the Company pays to its Note investors to reflect increases or decreases,
 in the blended index rate (as defined in the prospectus).  In addition, a
 significant percentage of the Company's Mortgage Loan investments have
 variable interest rates and reflect interest rate fluctuations due to inflation
 or other factors over the term of the investment.


                             Results of Operations

Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2000 vs. Twelve Months Ended December 31,
1999

   During the twelve months ended December 31, 2000, the Company incurred a
net gain of $4,865 as compared to a net gain of $33,320 for the same twelve
months ended December 31, 1999, a decrease in net income of $28,455.  Interest
income, net, for the period, was $388,544, a decrease of 5% from $407,964
for the twelve months ended December 31, 1999.  The Company's cost of funds
(i.e., interest expense) during this period increased $281,237 (or 34%)to
$1,103,535 for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2000 as compared to
$822,298 for the twelve months ended December 31, 1999.  This is attributable
to both growth in the Company's debt securities portfolio and an increase on
the weighted average rate.  At December 31, 2000, the company had outstanding
debt securities (Notes Payable) of $16,939,707, up from $15,503,354 at
December 31, 1999, an increase of 9%.

   The Company's operating expenses for the twelve months ended December 31,
2000 increased to $362,102 from $333,278 for the same period ending December
31, 1999, an increase of 9%.  This is attributable primarily to increases in
Salaries and Benefits, and increases in Office Operations for the company
over the same period in 1999

   The Company did not experience any material adverse effects on its results
of operation or financial conditions as a result of year 2000 issues.
Remediation costs associated with Year 2000 were minimal for the Company.






                       Liquidity and Capital Resources

Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2000 vs. Twelve Months Ended December 31,1999

   Net increase in cash during the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 was
$11,715, compared to a net decrease of $(71,880) for the twelve months ended
December 31, 1999.  This increase of $83,595 was due primarily to an increase
in net cash provided by operating activities.  Net cash provided by operating
Activities totaled $885,370 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000; an
increase of $838,569 from $46,801 provided by operating activities during the
twelve months ended December 31, 1999.

   Net cash used by investing activities totaled $(2,310,008) during the
twelve months ended December 31, 2000, compared to $(3,165,808) used during
the twelve months ended December 31, 1999, a decrease in cash used of
$855,800.  This difference is primarily attributable to a decrease in cash
used by net Notes Receivable (the difference between purchases of notes
receivable and principal payments received on notes receivable) during the
twelve months ended December 31, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999.

   Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $1,436,353 for this
twelve-month period in 2000, a decrease of $1,610,774 from $3,047,127
provided by financing activities during the twelve months ended December 31,
1999.  This difference is primarily attributable to a decrease in cash
provided by net borrowings on Notes Payable (the difference between principal
payments made one notes payable and proceeds from borrowings on notes payable)
as compared to the same period in 1999.

   At December 31, 2000, the Company's cash, which includes cash reserves and
cash available for investment in the Mortgage Loans, was $207,488, up from
$195,773 at December 31, 1999, an increase of $11,715 6%.

Board of Directors
Ministry Partners Investment Corporation


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Ministry Partners Investment
Corporation as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related statements of
income and retained earnings and cash flows for the years then ended.  These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Ministry Partners Investment
Corporation as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

                           NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                              DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999



NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business:  Ministry Partners Investment Corporation was incorporated
in California in 1991 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Evangelical Christian
Credit Union (ECCU).  The Company provides funds for real property secured loans
for the benefit of Evangelical churches and church organizations through funding
provided by members of and persons associated with such churches and
organizations.  The Company's offices, as well as those of its loan origination
source, ECCU, are located in the state of California and substantially all of
the business and operations of the Company are currently conducted in California
and its mortgage loan investments are concentrated in California.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Notes Receivable:  Interest income on notes receivable is recognized over the
term of the note and is generally computed using the simple interest method.
The allowance for notes receivable losses is increased by charges to income and
decreased by charge offs (net of recoveries).

Property and Equipment:  Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are stated at cost,
Less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is computed on a straight-line
basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to
five years.

Prepaid Offering Expense:  Prepaid public offering is related to a public
offering of unsecured notes.  It is being amortized over a two-year period.

Reclassification:  Certain account reclassifications have been made to the
financial statements of the prior year in order to conform to classification
used in the current year.

NOTE 2 -  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company maintains all its funds at the parent, ECCU.  Total funds held with
ECCU at December 31, 2000 and 1999 were $207,488 and $195,773, respectively.
Interest earned on these funds for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999
were $48,204 and $37,528, respectively.

NOTE 2 -  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED)
