Christian
Christian Credit Union is a credit union located in Alberta. It was founded in 1952. It primarily serves Members of the Reformed Christian community in Edmonton.
Christian Credit Union was incorporated in 1952 in Edmonton, Alberta, as Edmonton Christian Reformed Savings and Credit Union. It was founded by Dutch Canadian immigrants connected to the Christian Reformed Church.
Over time, the credit union broadened its membership from its original church connected base to individuals and organizations aligned with its Statement of Faith. In 2003, it amalgamated with Dutch Canadian Savings and Credit Union in Lethbridge, adding a second service location.
Today, Christian Credit Union operates from Edmonton and Lethbridge and offers personal, business, and nonprofit banking services, including accounts, borrowing, mortgages, investments, and related financial advice.
