Episcopalians across New England rallied to help raise $27,577 in a charitable contest launched last week by the bishops of the New England and Atlanta dioceses to see whose fans could raise the most money for Episcopal Relief & Development by game time on Super Bowl Sunday.
Final tallies show Team Patriots raising $11,663; Team Falcons raising $11,622; and an additional $4,000 in unspecified donations, with Episcopal Relief & Development and its disaster relief, public health and economic development ministries around the world the declared winner.
