Tax Law Makes Giving Easier

Congress has re-authorized the provision that allows you to make a tax-free gift from your IRA to Episcopal Relief & Development.

This means that if you are 70 1/2 or older and do not need the withdrawals from your IRA, you have a new source of tax-advantaged funds for use in making a gift.

To find out how you can take advantage of this opportunity or to learn more about planned giving and our Matthew25 Legacy Society, contact us at 800-334-7626 ext.6355 or email us at externalaffairs@er-d.org

The projected print date for the cancionero is May 2011.

Proyecto del Cancionero

El propósito del Proyecto Cancionero es preparar un cancionero en español para uso general en toda la Iglesia Episcopal, y uno que sea accesible, culturalmente relevante, y disponible a un precio asequible. El cancionero será un instrumento esencial para la evangelización y el crecimiento continuo de la iglesia porque le dará una voz a nuestra perspectiva única de la teología Episcopal y ayudará a formar un carácter fundamental episcopal entre los Latinos/Hispanos. A continuación se da una lista de los primeros documentos que definieron el alcance del proyecto y los principios rectores utilizados.
