We all have things we’re looking out for. Stuff we want to do, things we want to make — and make happen around us. We all want to stand for something. We’re looking out for ways to make a difference, and for companies that are looking out for more than themselves. And, we all want to know there’s someone who’s looking out for us. Protecting us. Providing for us. Keeping us informed. Helping us understand. Ready to give a hand. For us, that’s life.

Our Mission

Our Vision

SPARK UNDERSTANDING

one agent + one member + one employee at a time
Our understanding comes from our mission — we ask what matters to you instead of telling you what should. We’re here to help. Always.

SERVE SINCERELY

customer + agent + community service
It doesn’t matter how great your product is if you don’t back it up. We give the kind of service we would want to receive — personal, devoted, responsive, and reliable.

EMPOWER EACH OTHER

financial stability + doing right
When we’re led by the values of our faith, the ways we empower individuals and communities — through education and outreach — are so much bigger than life insurance.

FOLLOW YOUR HEART

faith + compassion + generosity + sense of family
To love and protect your neighbor, to defy convention, to do what’s right even when it’s hard — takes heart. We sell financial products. But how we do it, and why, is all heart.
