Collection for those affected by the fires in California
Although the Los Angeles fires have fallen out of news coverage, the devastation is still a reality for many people, including the families of the 29 who lost their lives and the over 10,000 structures lost. In the Eaton fire, St. Mark's Episcopal Church and School in Altadena were completely destroyed, a vibrant multi-cultural parish in a middle-class community.
As the Body of Christ, we share in this loss. We are gathering a collection from the Cathedral community to send to Saint Mark's as a visible sign of our love and unity. This effort will culminate on March 30,Mothering Sunday, when our children will sponsor a bake sale to share in this community endeavor. Between now and then we invite your generosity either by giving online here and choosing LA Fires Relieve Fund or by making a check to the Cathedral with fire relief in the memo line.
