[September 7, 2011] Videos, articles, interviews, sermons and
social media remembrances and conversations are the offerings
from the Episcopal Church marking the 10th Anniversary of
September 11.

"September 11 profoundly changed our country and our people,"
noted Anne Rudig, director of communication.  "While the
anniversary is a sad moment to mark, it also opened windows for
many to a deeper connection to God and a renewed spirituality."

Episcopal News Service will offer daily videos and articles,
beginning Wednesday September 7 and continuing through September
12. Among the articles in the series are reflections by
Episcopalians on the nature of evil and a look at St Paul's
Chapel, at the heart of recovery efforts and support for workers
at Ground Zero.

Videos will feature Episcopalians who experienced and responded
to the 9-11 attacks: the Rev. Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows,
Diocese of Central New York, trapped in nearby Trinity Wall
Street office building; the Rev. Gail Bennett, Diocese of New
Jersey, a chaplain in the mortuary at Ground Zero; the Rev.
Lyndon Harris, Diocese of New York, who spearheaded the respite
operations at St. Paul's Chapel; and the Most Rev. Frank T.
Griswold, then-Episcopal Church Presiding Bishop.

On Sunday, September 11, the Episcopal Church Multimeida Services
will videotape and post the sermon presented by Presiding Bishop
Katharine Jefferts Schori at 7:30 am at St. Paul's Chapel. The
sermon will be posted on the home page of the Episcopal church
website,  [http://www.episcopalchurch.org]   Also, the Presiding
Bishop will preach at 11 am at the Cathedral Church of St. John
the Divine in New York City. Episcopal News Service will report
on the services and sermons.

Throughout the week, Episcopal Church Web and Social Media
Services will provide daily postings on social media, facebook
and twitter, enlisting and inviting conversations and thoughts
about the 10th Anniversary.

The Office of Communication September 11 anniversary team
includes Mary Brennan, Mike Collins, Matthew Davies, Neva Rae
Fox, Barry Merer, Sharon Sheridan, Mary Frances Schjonberg, and
Lynette Wilson.

The Episcopal Church welcomes all who worship Jesus Christ in 109
dioceses and three regional areas in 16 nations.  The Episcopal
Church is a member province of the worldwide Anglican Communion.
