Hurricane Harvey Aid Update

Greetings in Christ,

I remain in contact with the bishops of the dioceses suffering the effects of hurricane Harvey. As I get more information from the Bishops of Texas and West Texas, I will coordinate with them about how we can serve them through marshalling the combined ministry of EDOD.  Below is how they suggest we can best serve them now:

  •       Give through Episcopal Relief and Development       

         http://www.episcopalrelief.org/hurricane-harvey-response

         https://www.episcopalrelief.org/what-you-can-do/volunteer/ready-to-serve  

  •      If you are so inclined, give directly to the affected dioceses 

 Diocese of Texas and Diocese of West Texas 

  •      Give blood

The Rev. Keith Turbeville, our Disaster Relief Coordinator, is my "point person" on our overall relief effort and response.  You may direct questions to him, and I am certain you will hear more from him soon on what our combined effort can and will be.

In the meantime, I reiterate my call that we all be in prayer for the people enduring by the devastation from hurricane Harvey.
