Churches Toll Bells for Flight 3407 Crash Victims PDF  | Print |  E-mail
The bells of St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Westfield, NY, will toll 51 times at 10:17 p.m. tonight in memory of Ron and Linda Davidson and the 49 other individuals who perished one year ago in the fiery crash of Flight 3407 in Buffalo, NY. The Davidsons were members of St. Peter's.

Seventy two miles northwest of Wesfield, St. Paul's Episcopal Church on South Harris Hill Road in Willimasville, NY, just 5 miles from the crash site, will also toll its bells. These and other Episcopal churches throughout the Diocese of Western New York, will join churches of all denominations for this special commemoration set to take place at the exact time of the the crash.

As families of the crash vicitms push for the adoption of new regulations that will help to insure safer air travel in the future, we pray: Father of all, we pray to you for those we love but see no longer: Grant them your peace; let light perpetual shine upon them; and, inb your loving wisdom and almighty power, work in them the good purpose of your perfect will; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

A Note to Reporters

When writing about our bishop:

On first reference it is proper to use
"The Right Rev. J. Michael Garrison."

On subsequent references, use
"Bishop Garrison." 

Also note:

“Episcopal” is an adjective.
“Episcopalian” is a noun.

An Episcopalian is someone who belongs
to the Episcopal Church.

It is incorrect to refer to Episcopalians
as "Episcopals" or to refer to the Episcopal
Church as "the Episcopalian Church."
