FROM BISHOB WEBB: Over the past four years church membership within the Northeastern Jurisdiction has fallen below the threshold required to maintain nine episcopal areas.

Prayer Need

As some of you may be aware, Jean Walek & Liam Kelly were involved in a car accident yesterday. Liam in home with a bruised knee, but doing well. Jean did not fare so well as she took the brunt of the collision. Jean is currently at Strong Memorial Hospital with neck injuries (which they are monitoring very closely), cracked ribs and she had some bleeding on the brain (at the last update I received it had stopped). Please keep Jean and the entire family in your prayers. I will send out updates as I receive them. Thanks…
