The pandemic has left a huge mark on the class of 2020. We are among the worst graduating classes.
I didn’t have a graduation to celebrate my accomplishments, which is a big milestone as a first-generation college student, and I am entering the workforce amid a recession.
If you are not already using the Employer Portal to pay benefits for your church or ministry’s employees, it is easy to get started.
Dear Friends,
I have an important request to make of all of you, our members and employers!
Over the past several weeks, you have seen messages – both from me and from the Pension Boards’ Member Services staff – encouraging employers and self-paying members to transition to online payment of their benefits invoices. You may remember reading that online payment is the new standard for the Pension Boards.
At this time, I would like to request that each of you begin making your payments using our online payment portal!
Dear Friends,
Since we began sending you these weekly updates in March, our goal has been to keep you informed about your benefits, available programs, and process changes while assuring you that all Pension Boards' business operations are moving forward as they were before the start of the pandemic.
You have heard from us. Now, we want to hear from you!
Dear Friends,
Navigating a crisis early on requires safety, caution, and agility. As the Pension Boards has carried out our work these past 22 weeks, we have done so carefully and with flexibility. As we look to the future and how we will emerge in a post-COVID context, we are laying a solid foundation for how best to serve you in a “new normal.”
