We were first established in 2011, under the leadership of General Superintendent, David Bernard, Former General Secretary, Jerry Jones, and The Stewardship Group founder, Stephen Drury, to provide a group policy of basic term life insurance to our U.S. and Canadian based ministers. Since 2011, we have expanded to offer a variety of insurance programs in the U.S. and Canada. These products include medical insurance, life insurance, and more to protect you and your family.
