Help Those Impacted by the Leander Fire

Published August 19, 2011 • Written by Brandon Kraft Filed Under: Blog, World and News

From this week’s diocesan newsletter, the E-Pistle:

On Monday, Aug. 15, a brush fire destroyed 15 homes and damaged seven others off of Horseshoe Drive in Leander. It left dozens of people without homes, including 20 children. Several of the families who lost their homes attend St. Margaret Mary Parish in Cedar Park. Any parish or individual that would like to help the victims may send contributions to St. Margaret Mary Parish, 1101 W. New Hope Dr., Cedar Park, TX 78613. Please indicate “Fire Relief” in the memo section of the check. The funds will be distributed to these families. Your prayers for the victims of the fires are much appreciated.
