The Board of Pensions is an agency of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) that provides a variety of health services to their churches, agencies, and affiliated employers through the Benefits Plan of the PCUSA including “medical, dental, vision, retirement, death and disability, and flexible spending accounts.”

Founded in Philadelphia in 1717, it was initially named the Fund for Pious Uses but eventually transformed into the Board of Pensions as its services and offerings grew. It now serves approximately 65,000 denominational staff and their families, providing tailored and unrestricted benefits in terms of medical, dental, vision, etc

One of these benefits that is covered is Women’s Health Protection, which includes mass murder through IVF procedures, but also through one-at-a-time elective abortions, according to the benefits handbook:

Consistent with the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)’s affirmation of the ability and responsibility of a woman to make good moral choices regarding problem pregnancies, the Medical Plan reimburses medical costs for abortion procedures, subject to plan limits.

Despite having no moral basis for making the point, they insist that “abortion should not be used as a method of birth control, for gender selection only, or solely to obtain fetal parts for transplantation.”

The PCUSA loves abortion so much that they’ll even pay their clergy to get one, two, three, or four, making it all the more terrifying on that day of judgment.

Heresy, plain and simple.

It is a sacrament of their religion.

Henri II should have executed John Knox when he had the chance.

That’s disgusting.

The largest line item amount in our PCA church budget is funding an anti-abortion organization in our county. Good vs evil Presbyterians.

Would be concerning if they claimed to be Christian.
