Support the Hawai'i Fire Response ~ What You Can Do
Dear friends,
High winds from Hurricane Dora and drought conditions combined to accelerate the growth of brush fires that devastated the Lahaina community in Hawaiʻi. Episcopal Relief & Development is in contact with the Episcopal Diocese of Hawaiʻi in the wake of wildfires that have killed many people and displaced hundreds of families on Maui.
We are calling on churches to help support our response to those who have been affected. For your convenience, we have packaged language for you to copy and paste on your website or other church communication, a QR code to use for flyers, bulletin inserts to print out as well as an announcement to share with your congregations on Sunday.
Please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with any questions.
Blessings,
Episcopal Relief & Development
Thank you to all who were able to participate in the August 8th card making event in the Memorial Lounge! The assembled team was able to create some beautiful cards with a hand chosen Bible verse that we are excited to share with others!
Whether you have a card-related talent or claim no talent, we would love you to join us for our future events. No experience or talent needed - if you can wield a glue stick, you can make cards.

The Final Product!
The first Sunday of the month will now be "Ingathering Sunday".
Our Community Outreach programs include Beacon House, Community Table & The Needful Things Personal Care Pantry. On the first Sunday of the month, in addition to bringing in Personal Care Pantry items (see the article for items needed), there will be an opportunity to contribute financially to our outreach ministries. This will help us to reach our financial commitments for each of these ministries.
Thank you for your continued support!
