Dear colleagues and friends,

News and images of the earthquake devastation in Turkey and Syria are horrifying and heartbreaking. With thousands dead and unknown numbers of injured, it is a humanitarian tragedy of epic proportion.

Along with our prayers, we can send financial support online here or by sending a check to the Diocese of Ohio (2230 Euclid Ave, Cleveland, OH 44115) marked for Earthquake Relief. All funds will be distributed through Episcopal Relief and Development. I will send support personally and from the Bishop’s Discretionary Fund, and encourage you to join me.

Gratefully,

The Rt. Rev. Mark Hollingsworth, Jr.
Bishop of Ohio
