How to Support Hispanic Ministries in East Carolina

No one has gone unaffected by this pandemic, yet different communities rely on various capacities to weather the storm. Hispanic communities tend to be more cash-based, and this time without in-person worship impacts Hispanic Churches disproportionately. However, our Churches have come together to support the community with different projects to benefit the congregations and their neighbors by keeping them fed and safe. Projects to remind us that while economies are significant, the values at the heart of each economy are the people made in the image of God. If you would like to support Hispanic Ministry in our Diocese and these projects, you may donate on-line or by check. If you write a check, mail it to PO BOX 1336 Kinston, NC 28503, and reference the Hispanic fund in the memo line. For every $20.00 donated, we would like to send you a non-medical mask made of cotton as a thank you gift. To give right away, go to  latinedec.org  and click on the donation button at the top of the page.
