I do want to offer this correction from the comment below. According to this Open Letter from the Church Council at Riverside Church, Rev.

They are Undergraduate Fellows, Congregational Fellows and Ministry Fellows with The Fund for Theological Education. Both Sarah and I were Ministry Fellows back in 2004-2005, and we actually met at the Summer Conference. I’ve been able to stay connected [...]
