Church Support for Family Leave Grant
The Mission Commission is proud to present a new grant for churches whose pastors are on paid family leave.
At the 225th General Assembly, an overture was made to provide paid family leave for all called and installed clergy. Inspired by this overture, this new grant reimburses up to $1500 of pastoral coverage costs for all clergy (installed, commissioned, or temporary supply) on paid family leave. Regardless of whether the proposed overture becomes an official change to the Book of Order, this grant will remain available to support churches whose pastors are on leave. We hope this will make it easier for congregations to care for their pastors who are experiencing major family and life changes.
