Request Assistance from the Benevolence Fund
We know the global response to the COVID-19 virus has created a lot of vocational and income uncertainty. Resurrection wants to provide financial resources that could be used to bridge gaps for people who attend our church. To that end, the vestry intends to set aside part of our operating funds to serve as a benevolence fund for people who attend Resurrection and are experiencing financial need. Your regular giving to our operating fund will allow our Vestry to continue to set aside what is required for these benevolence needs.
We want everyone who attends Resurrection to be aware that this fund exists AND that we have created a discrete and private way for people to request disbursements. Here is a link to the form that we have created to collect this information. Submissions will be received by a small committee overseen by clergy and vestry members. We have initially identified three categories of need: lost wages, health care costs, and unexpected costs due to quarantine. There will be a set amount that is given for each request. If you or someone you know has a financial need, please make them aware that this help is available. Please don’t be hesitate to request assistance. We are a church community that wants to help each other.
