As you pray for the people of Haiti in the aftermath of the earthquake, please pray specifically for Mallory Holding. Mallory is a volunteer serving in Haiti with the Young Adult Service Corps of the Episcopal Church. She is a member of our neighbor parish, St. Mark’s, Glen Ellyn, IL. She accompanied me on my first trip to the Sudan. So far there has been now report as to how she is doing.
Mallory’s mother, Suzi, is also a friend of mine who used to be rector of Church of Our Savior, Elmhurst, IL and is now Canon to the Ordinary in San Diego. Please hold Mallory and Suzi in your prayers.
