Due to Hurricane Sandy, Episcopal House will be closed through Wednesday, October 31, and will re-open Thursday, November 1. Diocesan members also need to be aware:
At the Bishop's request, and so that Episcopal House will be able to assist churches as quickly as possible, the email storm-damage@dionewark.org has been set up so that churches can report storm damage quickly. (Note that this will work even if Episcopal House email is down.)
Please note the following contact phone numbers for Church Insurance Company: 800-447-5699 or 802-753-1383. Do not hesitate to contact them should you need to do so regarding Hurricane Sandy.
A prayer from Bishop Beckwith:
O God, in you we find safety. As we prepare for the arrival of the storm, may we be gathered in the safety of your loving embrace. As we face the possibility of danger through lost power, damaged homes and churches, keep us and our dear ones safe. May your love for us unite us -- and support us; and enable us to support those for whom danger breaches their hope. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
