                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                March 31, 1997
Note A -- Basis of Presentation
   The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by
First Church Financing Corporation (the "Company"), without audit, pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations.  Management believes, however, that these condensed financial
statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary to provide a fair statement of the results for the periods
presented.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  It is
suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the
Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K.
Note B -- Mortgage-Backed Bonds
   Mortgage-Backed Bonds (the "Bonds") originally issued and outstanding at
March 31, 1997, consist of the following:

</TABLE>
   The stated maturity is the date by which all Bonds will be fully paid. 
Mandatory redemptions will be made from principal payments on the Mortgage
Loans (the "Loans") which serve as collateral for the Bonds.  The Loans
generally require regular installments of principal and interest based upon
a 15-year amortization schedule.  The receipt of scheduled principal
payments will cause a substantial portion of the Bonds to have shorter
maturities.
   The Bonds will be redeemed, without premium or penalty, to the extent
funds are available in the interest and principal payment accounts
maintained by the trustee.  Redemptions from such available funds (other
than funds from prepayments of Loans) commence six months from the date of
issue of a Bond series and continue on a semiannual basis thereafter.
   All interest and principal collected on the Loans, less a servicing fee
paid to Ziegler Financing Corporation, a related entity, is to be deposited
with the trustee of the Bonds.  Any amounts deposited with the trustee in
excess of amounts required for payment of interest on and principal of the
Bonds and an amount to be maintained in an interest reserve fund will be
returned to the Company.
   The Bonds of any series may be redeemed in whole by the Company at such
time as the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Bonds for the
series is 20% or less of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds
originally issued for that series.  Redemptions will also be made from
unscheduled prepayments on the Loans, if such prepayments should occur. 
Prepayments over and above the regular principal installments may be made
by the mortgagor from borrowed funds on a monthly or quarterly basis
commencing one year after the issue of a Bond series and from unborrowed
funds on a monthly or quarterly basis after the issue of a Bond series. 
Redemptions from such prepayments may be made after the same periods of
time.
                      MANAGEMENT'S NARRATIVE ANALYSIS OF
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                  Results of Operations - Three Months Ended
                            March 31, 1997 and 1996
   The Company issued no new Bonds during the first quarter of 1997 or
1996.  A total of $221,000 of Bonds were repaid during the first quarter of
1997 compared to $1,207,000 in the first quarter of 1996.  The difference
in Bond repayments during each of the quarters is primarily due to
different prepayment amounts received on the underlying Loans.
   Revenues, consisting primarily of interest, were $258,000 in the first
quarter of 1997 compared to $319,000 in the first quarter of 1996.  Total
expenses, consisting primarily of interest, were approximately $245,000 in
the first quarter of 1997 compared to $310,000 in the first quarter of
1996.  The decreases in revenues and expenses for the current year quarter
are due primarily to the large redemption of Bonds during the first quarter
of 1996.  Net income for the first quarter of 1997 was approximately $8,000
compared to $6,000 in the first quarter of 1996.
   Each series of Bonds is structured in a manner such that funds received
from the Loans are sufficient to fund interest and principal payments on
the Bonds as well as all other expenses of the Company.  All payments of
principal and interest on the church mortgage loans securing the Bonds have
been received by the Company as scheduled.  Principal payments received on
the mortgage loans were $162,000 in the first quarter of 1997 compared to
$1,161,000 in the first quarter of 1996.
   Ziegler Financing Corporation, a related corporation, acts as servicer
for the Loans for which it receives a fee.  Servicing fees paid Ziegler
Financing Corporation were approximately $9,000 in the first quarter of
1997 and $10,000 in the first quarter of 1996.  The fee is equal to 0.292%
of the average outstanding principal balance of the Loans during the
preceding month.  At March 31, 1997, there were $10,084,000 of Bonds
outstanding collateralized by $10,417,000 of Loans at maturity value.
