"It will take a lot of stamina, a lot of mental health strength ... to see your congregation through." - Dr. Eleanor "Ellie" Bergquist
The Consortium of Endowed Episcopal Parishes, one of Alban's partner organizations, hosted a webinar on March 18 about what the church should know in response to COVID-19 and how churches are already responding.

Dr. Russell Levenson, rector of St. Martin's Episcopal Church in Houston; and Rev. Dr. Noelle York-Simmons, rector of Historic Christ Church in Alexandria. Rev. Matt Heyd of The Church of the Heavenly Rest in New York moderated the conversation. |
