The Church Pension Group (CPG), as the Recorder of Ordinations, is collecting data on race, ethnicity, gender identity, and sexual orientation from all clergy on a voluntary basis.
This is in support of The Episcopal Church’s Becoming Beloved Community initiative and resolutions passed by the 79th General Convention.
In order for the Recorder of Ordinations to provide a full understanding of the demographic diversity of clergy—bishops, priests, and deacons who are actively employed, retired, and non-stipendiary—all clergy should participate.
