The
Beresford Organ Project
Great news!
A private donor offered to match any giving towards the purchase of
the new organ in the Ellipse Chapel, which will be in honor of Willo
May Beresford. We are only $6,100 away from completing this
memorial gift to honor the great life and service of someone we love
and miss dearly. Checks given should include “Organ Memorial Fund”
in the memo, and thanks to everyone who has already contributed!
