The New Life Fund campaign kicked off on April 7 at a dinner with Presiding Bishop Michael Curry.
Campaign co-chairs are Mr. John Banks, a member of All Saints’, Fort Worth and chair of the diocesan Finance Committee; and the Rev. Jim Hazel, retired priest of the diocese and president of the Corporation. Honorary campaign chairs are Assisting Bishops Rayford B. High, Jr. and Sam Hulsey.
This money will be used to invest in people – clergy and lay leadership – as we plant churches, train new clergy through curacy programs and support congregational growth and outreach initiatives such as the 4Saints Episcopal Food Pantry.

Whatever you decide to give to the New Life Campaign, please do so in the context of prayer.
For the Right Use of God’s Gifts
Almighty God, whose loving hand hath given us all that we possess: Grant us grace that we may honor thee with our substance, and, remembering the account which we must one day give, may be faithful stewards of thy bounty, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
