The Raleigh Ringers:

From Ann Boelzner:

I hope you’re doing well and that you’re all still playing bells! Soon after I moved to OK I had the opportunity to hear The Raleigh Ringers. You may have seen them in the past on PBS. They are just amazing in person!! I noticed they are playing in Midlothian in late August and commend the concert to you! We miss you all — please visit us and we’ll give you the Tulsa Tour!

Blessings, Ann

Haitian Relief Donations: On Saturday, August 14, a 7.2 magnitude earthquake struck the southwest portion of Haiti. This devastating earthquake was followed by Tropical Storm Grace on Monday night and much of Tuesday. More than 1 million people, including more than half a million children, have been impacted by the back-to-back disasters, and the death toll is close to 2000. Episcopal Relief & Development and its partners are responding immediately with direct assistance to vulnerable households in the region, as partners plan long-term recovery. Your generous gift can provide assistance to help people in the wake of these disasters. To assist in these efforts, visit episcopalrelief.org/haiti-relief.
