Syria Relief Benefit - October 12, 2013
Join us at St. Mary Church of Pawtucket, RI on Saturday October 12 for an evening of prayer, food, and support for the relief effort desperately needed in and around Syria. The sweeping violence in Syria has left more than six million people in urgent need of help and more than four million children, women and men displaced in their own country. Your efforts will help us respond quickly to those in need by providing emergency relief items such as food, heating, fuel and basic necessities like blankets and hygiene kits. All proceeds to benefit International Orthodox Christian Charities efforts to help the more than 6 million in urgent need.
The evening begins with a pan-Orthodox vespers at 5pm, followed by Dinner and a presentation from IOCC's Development officer Lou Zagami.
Even if you cannot attend, sponsorships and other opportunities for involvement are available.
