Cuba Clergy Pension Fund
Don protégé
Siblings in Christ!
Our Clergy Colleagues in the Episcopal Church in Cuba have just been re-welcomed into our family after over 50 years of unjust separation.
Part of the challenge in the reentry is that the clergy of Cuba have not been able to pay into the pension fund throughout their time in ministry to God's Church and its people.
As mentioned in the House of Bishops, if every Episcopalian gave $0.50 the gap in pension funding would be made up. Some Bishops from our smallest dioceses have committed $1 per member of their diocese, but it's really up to us to ensure this happens.
This GoFundMe has an initial goal of $5,000 which I am hopeful is not a challenge to raise before the end of convention, to show our real commitment to the Episcopal Church in Cuba.
