Diocese of the Northeast Establishes Legacy Fund


The Anglican Diocese of the Northeast has introduced a new growth initiative for the Diocese. Launched at the 2023 Synod under the leadership of Canon Missioner Fr. Matt Mirabile, the Diocese has created a team (PRIME) focused on Parish Renewal, Investment, and Evangelism. PRIME is addressing the challenges the church faces in declining church attendance, clergy availability, and mission growth. One critical need they identified was the development of the necessary and vital investment of funds for missions, parishes, and clergy. 

Proverbs 13:22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children,” (ESV) 

A “LEGACY” Fund is being created to accomplish this. The Diocesan Legacy Fund is designed to support the mission, parish, and the Diocese for a wide variety of expenses and investments necessary to ensure the future of our Tradition. This includes the funding of revitalization efforts for established parishes and the establishment of new missions. As such, it is not an ‘endowment’ only for a specific purpose but is to be a flexible and strategic fund for the growth of the Diocese. The goal is to make a positive and lasting impact to be felt for decades, affecting generations to come. Their intention to provide a ‘legacy’ or ‘inheritance’ to our children and their children: a generational deposit of the Faith that was entrusted to us and now is our duty to pass forward. The diocesan goal is to raise $3M in commitment funds within the next three years.

Anyone can contribute. Individuals can contribute immediately with a donation to the Diocese directly or a delayed donation can be set up to be dispersed upon one's final estate; both the immediate and estate options are available through this program. Donors can use directed giving through a life insurance policy, final estate assets, remaining funds from your retirement account, IRA, 401K’s etc., or annually by directing any portion of your IRA Required Minimum Distributions to one of these funds. All are tax strategic and provide both a blessing to your heirs and to the Church.
