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 such as the 4Saints Episcopal Food Pantry.
