Join Board of Pensions Church Consultant, the Rev. Christine Long, for an online, one-hour
workshop to review the basics on the 2025 Benefits Plan updates for congregational pastoral
leaders (i.e. installed pastors, non-installed pastors, Commissioned Pastors). This review will help
churches and their congregational pastoral leaders understand choices and costs for benefits in
2025.
The workshop will review:
- The Covenant Package
- Congregational Pastors Package
- Transitional Pastor’s Participation
While anyone interested is welcome to attend, the workshop is designed for congregational
pastoral leaders, Personnel Committee chairs, Session elders, finance employees or volunteers, or
other appropriate benefits decision makers in PCUSA congregations.
Pastors in unique situations such as: split service, couples sharing one position at the same
congregation (14-09 couples), Formula of Agreement pastors, non-PCUSA pastors, validated
pastors, and pastors receiving dues incentives are encouraged to contact Christine Long directly for guidance.
