Ken McBride

On October 28, Irish balladeer Ken McBride held a concert at St. George Church in The Villages to benefit its mission in Haiti. Two hundred and ninety people were in attendance and $4,500 was raised.

St. George is a member of the Episcopal Partnership Program and supports St. Thomas Church in Arcahaie and its rector, Father Max Accime. The money raised is helping finish the three classrooms St. George has helped build and purchase a generator for the church’s school, as well as assisting parishioners who lost crops following Hurricane Matthew.

In addition to these projects, St. George helps with both a student meal program and ensuring teachers’ salaries.
