Security Update - June 27, 2018

After detecting suspicious activity within our network, we took the precautionary measure on Monday evening, June 25, to shut down our network temporarily. This shut down included our telephone, email, website, and all business applications.

We are working with external security firms to ensure we know the full extent of any activity. Our assessment so far is that no financial or administrative systems or client data has been compromised.

We began bringing our systems back online on Tuesday afternoon, June 26, and will continue closely monitoring our systems until we have restored all operations. We will keep you apprised of our progress.

The Revd. Clayton D. Crawley
EVP, Chief Information Officer

Observing a Century of Service

When The Church Pension Fund (CPF) began operations in 1917, Bishop William Lawrence set out to create a pension fund that would enable clergy to retire with dignity. Since then our charter has expanded to include other products and services, and to cover lay employees who are critical to the Church’s ability to fulfill its mission.

A century later, Bishop Lawrence’s intention lives on in our vision, which is to provide our clients with the highest possible level of financial security in retirement consistent with exemplary financial stewardship on our part and with the evolving needs of the Church.

Learn more about how CPF continues to serve the changing needs of the Church.
