This past Sunday was one we won't soon forget.
Arise Community Credit Union had the honor of being invited to speak at Shiloh Temple International Ministries in Minneapolis — and the welcome we received was nothing short of extraordinary. Bishop Richard D. Howell Jr. didn't just open the doors of his church to us. He opened an account, becoming an active member of Arise Community Credit Union himself.
That moment speaks volumes. When a community leader of Bishop Howell's stature steps forward and says "I believe in this" — it's a powerful reminder of why Arise exists. We were founded to create real access, shared ownership, and genuine opportunity for communities that have too often been overlooked by traditional financial institutions. Moments like Sunday morning at Shiloh are exactly what that mission looks like in action.
We are deeply grateful to Bishop Howell and the entire Shiloh Temple family for their warmth, their trust, and their partnership. This is community banking the way it's meant to be.
The conversation doesn't stop here. We're returning to Shiloh Temple this Sunday, and we'd love to see you there.
Whether you've been thinking about opening an account for a while or you're just curious about what Arise is all about, come find us. We'll be there to meet you, answer your questions, and walk you through everything — step by step, no pressure.

Opening an account with Arise is straightforward. Here's everything you'll need:
We want your experience to be smooth and stress-free, so here's something good to know in advance: to protect your information, there's a standard identity verification step. You may be asked a few questions based on your personal history — things like past addresses or vehicles you've owned.
If something doesn't match right away, please don't worry. That doesn't mean you're denied. It simply means our team will follow up and work with you personally to complete your application. We are here to support you every step of the way.
Arise Community Credit Union was built for this community — by this community. If Sunday at Shiloh showed us anything, it's that the momentum is real, and it's growing.
Come see us this Sunday. Let's build something together.
