Good Friday Offering Materials Now Available

Since 1922, Episcopalians in the United States have supported the ministries of the Episcopal Church in Jerusalem and the Middle East through the Good Friday Offering. The ministry of the church in that region includes running schools, hospitals, orphanages, and community centers that serve people of all religious and ethnic backgrounds. The political situation has left the church in desperate need for funds to continue their work.

Presiding Bishop Frank T. Griswold’s annual Epiphany letter included a call to support the Episcopal Church in Jerusalem and the Middle East by prayer and donations to The Good Friday Offering. A bulletin shell and poster are available online at http://www.episcopalchurch.org/1649_1669_ENG_HTM.htm?menu=menu1668 or through Episcopal Books and Resource Center by calling 800-903-5544.
