Good Stuff in TEC: Ohio

St. Thomas Episcopal Church hosts fundraiser for Magpocs

Valerie and Reynaldo Magpoc have friends in high places.

Last month, this Brunswick couple narrowly survived a serious car accident that left Val in a halo neck stabilizer for four months to mend broken vertebrae and Rey with a sprained neck.

Their church family at St. Thomas Episcopal Church, 50 E. Bagley Road in Berea, has pulled together to run errands for the couple, shuttle them to doctors appointments, prepare meals and even help clean their home.

The church has taken its helping-hand approach a step further by organizing a benefit gourmet dinner and silent auction to assist this family that is without insurance with medical bills. Both Val and Rey were working part-time jobs and did not have health care.
