Dear Colleagues

Greetings in the
Wondrous Name of Jesus the Christ!
This message is

pastors and churches to aid family members of the CME College of
Bishops. There is no truth to this information. At no time should
you send money to these persons. Before you respond to any
general request for such aid, please contact your Presiding Prelate or
Presiding Elder.
Please pass this
information on to as many of our Connectional members as possible.
Your prompt
attention to this message is appreciated.
