Episcopal News Service. May 29, 1980 [80195]

New York -- Three 20-second radio announcements highlighting the work of the Episcopal Church's Presiding Bishop's Fund for World Relief are now available for use on local stations.

Presiding Bishop John M. Allin narrates the three announcements, each of which is designed to illustrate one of three major areas of the Fund's work: disaster relief, refugee ministry, and development. The announcements are adapted from the new film of the Presiding Bishop's Fund, "Yes, A Difference, " which premiered at the Colorado General Convention last fall and is currently in wide use throughout the Church.

The announcements, on 7½ ips audio tape and created for use in broadcast public service announcement slots, are available free of charge. Live script copy is included. Diocesan media officers and other interested Episcopalians who wish to try to place these in local markets should write to Sonia Francis, Radio-TV Officer, Episcopal Church Center, 815 Second Ave., New York, N.Y. 10017.

A series of complementary television announcements is also available.
