From September 25 to September 27 2024, thousands of communities in Western North Carolina (Asheville in particular) experienced catastrophic flooding as a result of Hurricane Helene. Many there remain without electricity, water, gas, and cell/internet service. If you’d like to make a monetary donation to assist those in need, consider Episcopal Relief & Development (ERD). For more than 80 years, ERD has worked with an extensive network of faith-based and secular partners to provide emergency relief and long-term support in disasters. Click the button below to donate.
This organization, which is operated by the DHSS, provides a hot evening meal at 5pm every night of the year, to anyone in need. Most of the men, women and children who come are homeless, but low income renters and senior citizens also come for a free meal in order to help make ends meet.
There is a paid cook, but volunteers are needed to set up, serve meals, and clean up, from 4:30pm - 7:00pm each evening. We have offered a team from All Saints to perform these duties on Tuesday Nov. 19th. Parishioner Dorothy Kitt serves there regularly and can answer any questions!
