                        (A Real Estate Investment Trust)
               Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1)    GENERAL

       See Note 1 of Notes to Financial  Statements in the Trust's Annual Report
       on Form  10-KSB405  for a summary of the Trust's  significant  accounting
       policies.

       The  unaudited  condensed  financial   statements  included  herein  were
       prepared  from  the  books  of the  Trust in  accordance  with  generally
       accepted accounting principles and reflect all adjustments (consisting of
       normal  recurring  accruals)  which are,  in the  opinion of  management,
       necessary to a fair  statement of the results of operations and financial
       position for the interim  periods.  Such financial  statements  generally
       conform to the  presentation  reflected in the Trust's  Annual  Report to
       Shareholders.  The current  interim period reported herein is included in
       the fiscal year subject to independent  audit at the end of that year and
       is not  necessarily an indication of the expected  results for the fiscal
       year.

(2)    WEIGHTED AVERAGE INTEREST RATES

       Weighted average interest rates and net interest rate margins at December
       31, 1995, and March 31, 1995, were as follows:

                                   Mortgage loan and       Total    Net interest
                                 church bond portfolio indebtedness  rate margin

(4)    MORTGAGE LOANS, CHURCH BONDS AND INTERIM CONSTRUCTION LOANS

       Mortgage loans, church bonds and interim  construction loans on which the
       accrual of interest  had been  discontinued  amounted to  $2,885,189  and
       $3,136,330  at December 31, 1995 and 1994,  respectively.  If interest on
       these mortgage  loans,  church bonds and interim  construction  loans had
       been accrued as earned,  interest  and fees on loans in the  accompanying
       condensed statements of income would have been increased by approximately
       $235,000 and $134,000 for the nine-month  periods ended December 31, 1995
       and 1994, respectively.

                        CHURCH LOANS & INVESTMENTS TRUST
                        (A Real Estate Investment Trust)
               Notes to Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

       Nonearning  assets  include  one  interim  construction  loan which had a
       principal  balance of  $1,400,977  at December 31, 1995.  The loan became
       delinquent  during the latter  part of 1994 and was placed on  nonaccrual
       status  and  all  accrued   interest   was   written-off.   The  loan  is
       collateralized  by a church  building and  management  believes  that the
       potential  loss,  if any, is  adequately  provided in the  allowance  for
       possible  credit  losses  at  December  31,  1995.  Management  initiated
       proceedings  to foreclose  the  collateral  securing such loan and during
       July 1995,  a  temporary  forbearance  agreement  and  financial  control
       agreement  was reached in which,  among other  things,  the  borrower has
       agreed to pay the Trust  $5,000  per week.  The  borrower  had  generally
       complied  with the terms of the agreement  through  December 31, 1995. If
       the terms are not  substantially  complied  with, the Trust will continue
       with foreclosure proceedings.

(5)    SECURED SAVINGS CERTIFICATES

       Secured  Savings  Certificates  (Certificates)  are  issued in amounts of
       $1,000 or more and have  single  maturity  dates from 30 days to 10 years
       from date of issue. With respect to an individual  certificate,  interest
       rate and  frequency of payment of interest  (either  monthly,  quarterly,
       semiannually,  annually or at maturity) are fixed at the time of issuance
       of the  Certificate.  Effective  July 18, 1994,  the Trust decided not to
       register  and was not able to sell  additional  Certificates  after  that
       date. However,  during April 1995, the Board of Trust Managers decided to
       register  $20,000,000 of Certificates on Form SB-2 and as of December 31,
       1995, such registration was effective and Certificates were being issued.

       Certificates  are secured under the terms of an indenture  that requires,
       among other things,  the pledge of mortgage notes  receivable  with total
       unpaid principal  amounts not less than 125% (100% for Certificates  sold
       in 1995) of the aggregate  principal amount of Certificates  outstanding.
       Due to the fluctuations in the amount of sales of Certificates as well as
       in the repayment of notes pledged to secure the  Certificates,  the Trust
       has on occasion failed to maintain the required ratio of pledged notes to
       outstanding  Certificates for a short period of time until the deficiency
       could  be  corrected.  The  indenture  trustee  has  been  aware of these
       temporary  technical  defaults and has not  declared a default  under the
       Indenture.  At December 31, 1995,  the Trust was in  compliance  with the
       requirement.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

Results of Operations - Three-Month  and  Nine-Month  Periods Ended December 31,
1995 as Compared to the  Three-Month  and Nine-Month  Periods Ended December 31,
1994:

                                    REVENUES

The Trust's  revenues are derived from interest  income earned on mortgage loans
as well as, to a lesser degree,  interest  earned on church bonds and short-term
investments.  The decrease in the Trust's  revenues of $105,535 and $112,174 for
the three-month  and nine-month  periods ended December 31, 1995, as compared to
the  corresponding  periods in 1994 is  primarily  due to a decrease  in average
mortgage  loans,  church bonds and interim  construction  loans.  Loan  balances
decreased  from  $41,190,548 at December 31, 1994 to $34,825,508 at December 31,
1995. This more than offset an increase in the weighted averaged rates on loans.
The weighted  average rate on mortgage loans,  church bonds and interim loans at
December 31, 1995 and 1994 was 11.22% and 10.67%, respectively.

                                INTEREST EXPENSE

The most  significant  expense  item is interest  expense  which  comprised  the
majority of total  operating  expense for each of the three-month and nine-month
periods ended December 31, 1995 and 1994. Interest expense decreased by $102,795
and $118,463 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 1995,
respectively,  as compared to the corresponding period in 1994, primarily due to
decreases in average debt balances.  The weighted  average  interest rate on all
indebtedness was 7.57% at December 31, 1994 as compared to 7.42% at December 31,
1995.

                                NONEARNING ASSETS

Nonearning  assets include one interim  construction  loan which had a principal
balance of $1,400,977 at December 31, 1995.  The loan became  delinquent  during
the latter  part of 1994 and was  placed on  nonaccrual  status and all  accrued
interest was written-off.  The loan is  collateralized  by a church building and
management  believes that the potential loss, if any, is adequately  provided in
the  allowance  for possible  credit  losses at December  31,  1995.  Management
initiated  proceedings to foreclose the collateral securing such loan and during
July 1995, a temporary forbearance agreement and financial control agreement was
reached in which,  among other things,  the borrower has agreed to pay the Trust
$5,000 per week.  The  borrower  had  generally  complied  with the terms of the
agreement through December 31, 1995. If the terms are not substantially complied
with, the Trust will continue with foreclosure proceedings.

                                    LIQUIDITY

Due to the cost of  registration  and of sales of Secured  Savings  Certificates
(Certificates),  the cost of these  funds are  normally  higher than the cost of
borrowing from bank sources or master notes. Therefore, the Trust decided not to
register  additional  Certificates  and the  Trust  was not  able to sell  these
Certificates  after July 18, 1994, and,  therefore,  did not have available this
source of funds to meet its liquidity  needs.  However,  during April 1995,  the
Board  of Trust  Managers  decided  to  register  on Form  SB-2  $20,000,000  of
Certificates.  As of December 31, 1995,  such  registration  was  effective  and
Certificates were being issued.
