ECC Tea
- Thanks to Patricia Dorn, Janice Ezeani, Irene Fletcher and other members of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Episcopal Center for Children, the fundraising tea on September 16 was a marvelous experience. Tea and goodies were accompanied by the music of a harpist and the opportunity to view a video and take a tour of the campus. Children ages 5-14 who have serious social/emotional issues are well served by a very caring and experienced staff of teachers and mental health professionals. It is not too late to make a contribution. You may write a check to Good Shepherd and put ECC on the memo line or write a check directly to the Episcopal Center for Children and give it to one of our three ladies mentioned above. Good Shepherd has supported the Episcopal Center for Children for decades and will continue to do so.
