Bringing a Bounty of Big Love to Camp Beckwith
Father Patrick has been in contact with some folks at Camp Beckwith in Fairhope (Alabama’s Camp Bratton Green).
The need there is significant.
A group from St. Peter’s will be heading over on Tuesday to help with clean up. We are asking for donations and volunteers. We are excited that we are positioned to help in such an immediate way and the folks at Beckwith are also eager to get back to fighting weight so that
they can be a relief resource for their community and beyond.
Working plan is to return on Friday. Junior Warden Allan Young will be delivering our trailer on Monday and getting the lay of the land for us. Thanks, Allan!
It is always so challenging to discern what we can do to assist folks after a storm that changes, temporarily or otherwise, the lives of those impacted. It is so good then when we know someone in the thick of it. We were fortunate that Hurricane Sally turned east and spared us. However, as is always the case, the storm went to another place and damage was most definitely done.
John Dreyfus, a dear friend and program director for Camp Beckwith in Fairhope, has asked us for help. Our plan is to deliver our relief trailer to Beckwith Monday morning and take volunteers to assist with cleaning their property on Tuesday. I am convinced that helping them get back to work in ministry will ensure a more speedy recovery for the entire area.
We will of course be using our time on site to discern other needs in the surrounding communities!
