FAIRFAX, Va.

(August 23, 2007) – As the second anniversary of Hurricane Katrina approaches, the Anglican District of Virginia (ADV) parishes have continued to give generously to support the victims of the disaster and the rebuilding effort. ADV is an association of Anglican congregations in Virginia and a part of the Convocation of Anglicans in North America (CANA).

“ADV members continue to press forward with mission. In addition to the many foreign mission trips that our congregations have undertaken this year, we have sent several teams to aid in the ongoing reconstruction efforts of the areas hit by Hurricane Katrina. There remains a mountain of work to do, and our churches have been responding. We continue to be encouraged by the progress ADV members are making there and the lives that are being transformed,” said Jim Oakes, vice-chairman of ADV. the rest
