We attend to multiple retirement plans, healthcare for active and retired clergy and lay employees. We spend time with financial reports, actuarial reports, funding projections, requests for special grants, requests for exceptions, and concerns about the capacities of churches to fund ministry. CBoPH covers the costs of staff time related to pensions and health benefits administration, thus removing these costs from the Annual Conference Ministry Shares Budget and reflecting that these costs are intrinsic to the costs of the benefits we offer. In all that we do, we seek to address the needs of our participants with sustainability and fairness.
