Foundations Align Grants With Vision For Growth
January 9, 2019
Ministry in the Diocese of Texas has benefited from the generosity and foresight of many people. In 1950, when Bishop Clinton Quin first sought funding for St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital in the Texas Medical Center, he went to Houston oilman Roy Cullen and asked for a million dollars. Cullen faithfully wrote out the check that day. No one could have imagined that 63 years later, the expanded health system that grew from an initial tertiary care facility would yield the Episcopal Health Foundation (EHF) as well as another dedicated to planting new churches. EHF makes grants from the interest on the billion dollar corpus, and the Great Commission Foundationโ—with a corpus of $126 millionโ—provides funding for new church plants.
