The February issue of Lamplight, Episcopal Relief & Development’s disaster program newsletter is available to read online.

This month, we are praying for everyone affected by the earthquakes in Türkiye (Turkey) and Syria. We are also remembering all who have been affected by recent and past winter storms across the country, and those who are disproportionately affected by disasters due to poverty, race, immigration status, disabilities and other factors. During this Lenten season, let us repent of our wrongdoings, and embrace the call to love one another. By doing so, we can become communities that reflect God’s design for humanity.

For over 80 years, Episcopal Relief & Development has been working together with supporters and partners for lasting change around the world. Each year the organization facilitates healthier, more fulfilling lives for more than 3 million people struggling with hunger, poverty, disaster and disease. Inspired by Jesus’ words in Matthew 25, Episcopal Relief & Development leverages the expertise and resources of Anglican and other partners to deliver measurable and sustainable change in three signature program areas: Women, Children and Climate.
