Tsunami Relief

As I previously posted on AnglicansAblaze, Anglican Mainstream has launched a call for aid to South India. I have not discovered yet about what Anglican Relief and Development is doing. Or the Anglican Mission in America. If I learn anything, I will pass it along to the readers of AnglicansAblaze. One of the AMiA's sponsoring bishops is the Most Revd. Datuk Yong Ping Chung, the Bishop of Sabah, who is also the Archbishop and Primate of the Province of South East Asia. His province includes Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand and was greatly effected by the earthquake and tidal wave. Since the Anglican Province of South East Asia has declared a state of broken communion exists between itself and the Episcopal Church USA, it is doubtful that it will accept direct relief from the Episcopal Church. However, orthodox Episcopal parishes may be able to help the affected area through Anglican Mainstream, Anglican Relief and Development, the Anglican Mission in America, and the Diocese of Sabah , the Diocese of Singapore , and the Diocese of West Malaysia. Google has established a Tsunami Relief web page.
