Dear Percy-L:
For those in a position to help, please find below an email from St.
Joseph Abbey about a website now set up so individuals can contribute to
a flood relief fund for the Abbey following its recent, serious flooding
of 2 feet of water following major storms in the area. Please visit the
website at: www.helptheabbey.com
For a media video showing the beauty of the historic church sanctuary
and the recovery effort now underway, also see:

Good morning Volunteers,
An easy-to-remember website is now live to make a donation towards the
Abbey Flood Relief Fund: helptheabbey.com. Please share accordingly.
I have begun sharing with media, posting it on our social media
channels, and placing it on different areas of both the seminary and
abbey websites.
Here's some recent media coverage.
