[Magdalen] Fwd: Re: Please pray for Ascension, Chicago

[Jo Craddock]

Apologies if this is a duplicate. I'd thought my settings were that I 
not receive copies of my notes to the pub, but then I /did/ receive a 
copy of my note re: annual meetings, this morning.

Peace,
Jo

But this is the state of employment for *every employee* in "right to
work" and "employment at will" states such as Louisiana -- any day, any
time, your nimrod can tell you goodbye.

Church employees are not covered by unemployment insurance, either. Add
to the mix earning 60-75% of salary relative to a comparable for-profit
position. (And that's a vast improvement; when I was on vestry back in
the mid-1990s, our full time CE director, with an MEd and some graduate
theology work, was earning <$20K/yr.)

Peace,
Jo
