Supporting Episcopal Relief & Development: Johns Memorial, Farmville

Congratulations to the young people at John's Memorial, Farmville for raising over $515 for Episcopal Relief & Development. They raised this money by hosting a Coffee Hour after church. People were encouraged to give a donation for a treat and every person who made a donation was entered into a raffle drawing. I hope their witness and example will inspire others in the diocese to undertake simple and creative ways to help fund one of the most important ministries of the Episcopal Church.  -  The Very Rev. Keith Emerson, Diocesan Representative for Episcopal Relief & Development
