What has our church done in our diocese to protect our most vulnerable? Diocese of Charleston Information Sheet from Most Rev. Robert E. Guglielmone.
Above all, even though it will be painful, I firmly believe that the truth will set us free (John 8:32).
This is eternal life, that they may know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
Pastor's Corner
Aiding Those in Need
10-21-2018Rev. Gregory B. Wilson, VFDear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Natural disasters can make us feel helpless. From the immense destruction of the recent hurricanes Michael and Florence to the earthquake and tsunami in Indonesian to catastrophic floods in India and France, we are often left wondering how we can help. The vast majority of us cannot travel to these places and are not equipped to help “on the ground.” However, we can help (1) through our prayers (which are more powerful than we imagine) and (2) donations to trusted organizations that are able to help.
