fall 2006 and up) and adults took a mission trip to Church of the
Redeemer Episcopal Church in Biloxi, Mississippi. Church of the
Redeemer was completely destroyed by Hurricane Katrina and has
been "adopted" by the Diocese of Massachusetts as a focus of our
Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. They assisted with the recovery and

hopefully be the first of many future mission trips for this parish.
