Episcopal Community Services of Maryland Praised by Archbishop Tutu
Peter Dunn, major gifts and marketing manager for the organization, set in motion the endorsement after hearing Bishop Tutu speak in Washington, D.C. “I contacted Archbishop Tutu through The Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation in New York City and asked him to take a look at our website and if he was moved, to consider writing a letter of support.” The Rt. Rev. John L. Rabb, bishop-in-charge of Maryland, wrote a letter of recommendation to the peace center on behalf of ECSM. Impressed with what he saw, Tutu sent this letter to ECSM.
