PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.   Financial Statements

The attached Balance Sheets as of June 30, 1999 and 1998, Statement
of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
and Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 1999
and 1998 of Registrant (the "Company") have been prepared by the Company
without an audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which
include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly
the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at
June 30, 1999 and 1998 and for the six months ended June 30, 1999
and 1998 have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  The results of
operations for the periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.

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

                           Results of Operations

Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 1998

    During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company incurred
a net gain of $30,701 as compared to a net gain of $38,148 for the
same six months ended June 30, 1998, a decrease in net income of
($7,447).  Net interest income after provision for note receivable losses
increased to $207,377, an increase of $49,572 (or 31%) from $157,805 for
the six months ended June 30, 1998.  These increases are attributable
primarily to an increase in interest income from the Company's Mortgage
Loan investments.  The Company's cost of funds (i.e., interest expense)
during this period increased $89,025 (or 28%); i.e., $398,595 for the
six month period ending June 30, 1999 as compared to $309,570 for
the six months ended June 30, 1998.  This increase is attributable
to an increase in Notes Payable.  At June 30,1999, the company had
outstanding debt securities (Notes Payable) of $13,109,988, up
from $10,084,973 at June 30, 1998, an increase of 30%.

    The Company's operating expenses for the six months ended June
30, 1999 increased to $157,382 from $107,814 for the same period ending
June 30, 1998, an increase of 46%.  This is attributable primarily to
increases in such office operating expenses as marketing, management and
accounting services provided for the company over the same period in 1998.

    The Company is addressing the Year 2000 issue with its parent company,
Evangelical Christian Credit Union, who is the data processing provider for
the Company. The Company is tracking its Year 2000 preparation in a database
that includes software, hardware devices, vendors and interfaces.

    Most critical time-sensitive systems were compliant by the end of 1999.
All remaining critical systems were retired prior to June 1, 1999 as the
Company installed new systems to better serve its investors.  All new systems
were tested and verified as Year 2000 compliant before their installation,
which also occurred prior to June 1, 1999.

    Because of the nature of their operations, the Company does not believe
the ability of Mortgage Loan recipients (primarily churches) to maintain
payment schedules will be materially impacted by the Year 2000 issue.
However, the failure of several Mortgage Loan recipients to meet such
payment schedules as a result of the Year 2000 issue could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results of operation or financial position.
Though the Company does not expect the Year 2000 issue to have a material
adverse effect on its result of operation or financial condition, there
can be no assurances of that position.

    Contingency plans include alternative vendors, alternative procedures and a
business recovery plan which is tested annually.  The business recovery plan
is designed for catastrophic events such as earthquakes or major fires, and
has application also to the Year 2000 issue.  Remediation costs associated
with Year 2000 were nominal for the Company through completion of Year 2000
compliance in mid-year 1999, and are expected to be nominal for the remainder
of 1999 and 2000.

                      Liquidity and Capital Resources

Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 1998

     Net increase in cash during the six months ending June 30, 1999
was $223,357, compared to a net increase of $452,125 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, a decrease of ($228,768).  Net cash provided by
operating activities totaled $39,875 for the six months ended June
30, 1999, a decrease of ($4,118) over $43,993 provided by operating
activities during the six months ended June 30, 1998.  This difference is
attributable primarily to increases in such office operating expenses as
marketing, management and accounting services provided for the company
over the same period in 1998.

     Net cash used by investing activities totaled ($1,320,279) during the
six months ended June 30, 1999, compared to ($892,972) used during
the six months ended June 30, 1998, an increase of $427,307 or
48%.  This difference is attributable to an increase in Notes Receivable
purchased and a decrease in Notes Receivable collected during the six month
period ending June 30, 1999 as compared to the same period in 1998.

     Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $1,503,761 for this
six month period in 1999, an increase of $202,657, or 16%, from
$1,301,104 provided by financing activities during the six month period
ending June 30, 1998.  This difference is attributable to an increase in
principal payments made on Notes Payable and a net increase in funds
provided by the Line of Credit during the six month period ending
June 30, 1999 as compared to the same period in 1998.

     At June 30, 1999, the Company's cash, which includes cash reserves
and cash available for investment in the Mortgage Loans, was $491,010,
down from $572,110 at June 30, 1998, a decrease of ($81,100).

                     MINISTRY PARTNERS INVESTMENT CORPORATION
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998

1. Summary of Significant accounting policies

   Nature of Business

   Ministry Partners Investment Corporation (MPIC) 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.

   Prepaid offering expense

   Prepaid offering expense is related to a proposed public offering of
   unsecured notes.  It is being amortized over a three year period.

   Organization and start up costs

   Organization and start up costs have been capitalized and are being
   amortized, using the straight-line method over a five-year period

   Notes Receivable

   Interest income on notes receivable is recognized over the term of
   the note and is generally computed using the simple interest method.


<PAGE>
2. Related party transactions

   MPIC maintains all of its funds at the parent, ECCU.  Total funds
   held with ECCU were $491,010 and $572,110 at June 30, 1999 and
   1998, respectively.  Interest earned on these funds were $6,688 and
   $2,772 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,
   respectively.

   MPIC utilized physical facilities and other services of ECCU.  A
   charge of $5,247 - 1999 and $2,840 - 1998 was made for these services
   which is included in Office Operations.  The method used to arrive at
   the periodic charge is based on the fair market value of services
   provided.  Management asserts that such method is reasonable

   Notes payable are substantially to members of ECCU

3. Notes receivable

   In March 1992, MPIC purchased a pool of first trust deed seasoned
   loans from ECCU for the then outstanding balance.  Loan maturities
   extend through 2001, although the majority were due in 1995 and 1996
   Interest rates range from 7.025% to 11.50%, yielding an average of
   9.138%.  The loans were made to churches in Southern California and
   are the collateral for certain notes payable.  This pool of first
   trust deed notes was retired in early 1996.

   During 1997, 1998 and 1999, MPIC participated in church loans made by
   ECCU.  Interest is at variable rates of interest; ranging from 7.500% to
   11.000%.  ECCU services these loans, charging a service fee.

   An allowance for doubtful accounts has been established for notes
   receivable of $14,000 as of June 30, 1999.  At June 30, 1998 no
   allowance for doubtful accounts had been established. The Company has
   no experience of loan loss and, as of June 30, 1999 and 1998, none of
   the loans are impaired. Management believes all of the notes are
   adequately secured and fully collectible.
