Stories from the Field

Explore the videos below for stories from the field as told by Episcopal Relief & Development staff. These stories are grouped into three sections: Women, Children and Climate, US Disaster Response and COVID-19 Response. You will notice that many of these stories overlap in priority areas, as these priorities must all be addressed for lasting change.

Many of these stories were told during a staff Zoom meeting dedicated to story sharing. The staff agreed to share these stories with Ministry Partners. Find the stories that resonate with you and share them with your congregations and dioceses in your own words.
