Wespath Engages Thomas Kemper to Support CCP

Wespath is pleased to announce that Thomas Kemper will be a consultant in support of CCP and central conference relationships effective January 1, 2021.

Thomas recently retired as general secretary of the General Board of Global Ministries. He brings to Wespath’s CCP team extensive experience with the central conferences, coupled with strong relationships across the Church. Thomas’s primary focus will be bolstering the long-term sustainability of pension plans in the central conferences. His work will include consulting with central conference bishops, conference leaders and boards of pensions to assist them in addressing pension program challenges and opportunities, including the systems and structures in which the plans operate.

"We are delighted to have Thomas join us in a consulting capacity," said Barbara Boigegrain, Wespath general secretary. "He will be a valuable resource as we continue to build and maintain critical relationships important for CCP success and effective support of non-U.S. pensions."

In October, Thomas spent three days at Wespath’s headquarters with the CCP team getting oriented to central conference pensions work. We are extremely grateful Thomas will continue his long service to the Church by working as a consultant for the CCP program.
