Top Episcopal bishop praises agencies' work in G.I. visit


From Nebraska-

During her visit to Grand Island on Friday morning, Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori spoke to church leaders and parishioners about the Episcopal calling to serve a hurting world.

But before she spoke, she also got to witness an ideal example of that type of service in Grand Island's own St. Stephen's Community Center.

After her tour, Jefferts Schori said she was wowed by the partnerships she found among the numerous community groups that use the community center, which is connected to St. Stephen's Episcopal Church.

"It's, in a sense, a one-stop shopping center for those who need assistance," Jefferts Schori, the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church, said in an interview. "It's a real-life witness to the larger community of what's possible when people partner."

Jefferts Schori got a quick glimpse at the beehive of activity that is the community center, with stops at the offices of the Heartland United Way, Project Hunger, Heartland CASA and Grand Island Area Habitat for Humanity among others.

At each stop, she asked about how many people the organization served and how it worked with other agencies in the building.
