HURRICANE RELIEF REQUESTED

How to help

The Episcopal Bishops throughout the church have encouraged all who want to help with relief efforts to send their donations to the Episcopal Relief and Development's Hurricane Relief Fund .

They are discouraging the sending of goods or travel to the region for now. Resurrection will collect checks made out to Episcopal Church of the Resurrection (marked hurricane relief in the memo line) for the next four weeks and send one check to ERD in support of hurricane relief for those who wish to contribute in this way.
