A Message from Mary Kate Wold

Chief Executive Officer and President

Dear Friends:
For more than a century, the Church Pension Group (CPG) has met the employee benefits, property and casualty insurance, and publishing needs of The Episcopal Church. Our current vision, which hearkens back to the bold vision of our founder, Bishop William Lawrence, is to make sure our clients have the highest possible level of financial security in retirement that is consistent with exemplary financial stewardship on our part and with the evolving needs of the Church. Consistency and agility—providing stability while advancing our capabilities to fulfill our purpose over time—are hallmarks of our work.
We are leveraging new technology to enhance client services and to protect the privacy of client data. We are recruiting and developing strong talent at CPG, trustworthy individuals who display high levels of professionalism and compassion in their work. We also are cultivating relationships with third-party vendors who fill gaps in our capabilities and offer state-of-the-art solutions to the people and institutions we serve.
In this Annual Report we share reflections from our Board of Trustees, a summary of our investment performance, and a description of some recent commitments we have made in our technology, talent, and vendor management for the benefit of the Church. We also offer updates on our property and casualty and publishing lines of business.
CPG was established a long time ago, but we are as committed as ever to responding to client needs. We look forward to continuing to serve the people and institutions of The Episcopal Church.
Faithfully,
Mary Kate Wold
