              NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       September 30, 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
September 30, 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
                   September 30, 1997 and 1996
     The Company issued no new Bonds during the third quarter of 1997 or
1996.  A total of $193,000 of Bonds were repaid during the third quarter of
1997 compared to $159,000 in the third quarter of 1996.
     Revenues, consisting primarily of interest, were $250,000 in the third
quarter of 1997 compared to $264,000 in the third quarter of 1996.  Total
expenses, consisting primarily of interest, were $233,000 in the third quarter
of 1997 compared to $246,000 in the third quarter of 1996.  The decreases in
revenues and expenses for the third quarter of 1997 compared to the third
quarter of 1996 are due to loan repayments and bond redemptions during and
between such periods.  Net income for the third quarter of 1997 was $11,000
compared to $10,000 in the third quarter of 1996.
            Results of Operations - Nine Months Ended
                   September 30, 1997 and 1996
     The Company issued no new series of Bonds in the first nine months of
1997 or 1996.  A total of $526,000 of Bonds were repaid during the first nine
months of 1997 compared to $1,507,000 in the first nine months of 1996.  
     Revenues, consisting primarily of interest income, were $763,000 in 1997
compared to $852,000 in 1996.  Total expenses, consisting primarily of
interest expense, were $711,000 in 1997 compared to $804,000 in 1996.  The
decreases in revenues and expenses for the first nine months of 1997 compared
to the first nine months of 1996 are due to loan repayments and bond
redemptions during and between such periods.  Net income for the first nine
months of 1997 was $31,000 compared to $29,000 for the first nine months of
1996.  
     Each series of Bonds is structured in a manner such that funds to be
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 Loans securing the Bonds have been received by
the Company as scheduled.  Principal payments including any prepayments
received on the Loans were $472,000 in the first nine months of 1997 compared
to $1,445,000 in the first nine months of 1996.  Ziegler Financing
Corporation, a related corporation, acts as servicer for the Loans for which
it receives a fee.  The fee is equal to 0.292% of the average outstanding
principal balance of the Loans during the preceding month.  At September 30,
1997, there were $9,779,000 of Bonds outstanding collateralized by $10,106,000
of Loans at maturity value.
