CENTRAL GULF COAST SENDS $40,000 FOR WORLD HUNGER
NEW YORK, N.Y. -- The Episcopal Diocese of Central Gulf Coast has contributed $40,000 for world hunger through the Presiding Bishop's Fund for World Relief, which represents 10 percent of the total national contributions through mid-February.
The Diocese of Central Gulf Coast has 18,500 baptized members, which is approximately .6 percent of the total membership of three million in the Episcopal Church.
The Rt. Rev. George M. Murray, Mobile, Ala., is the Bishop of Central Gulf Coast.
Contributions designated for world hunger continue to come in to the Presiding Bishop's Fund for World Relief, in response to the special Christmas appeal of Presiding Bishop John M. Allin, and to the appeals issued by many bishops in their own dioceses.
