We pray for Haiti

Haiti Earthquake- HELP NEEDED!

From Church World Service:
A 7.0-magnitude quake struck Haiti Tuesday, shattering buildings and forever changing lives. While authorities still don’t know the extent of the damage, it is estimated that 3 million people may be affected by Haiti’s worst earthquake in 200 years. One survivor reports there are thousands of people roaming the streets, looking for shelter.
Haiti is already the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, with 8 out of 10 people living in extreme poverty. It’s a place where many in the world have turned their backs. But not Church World Service. (CNN story)

Now, a massive earthquake has hit this already vulnerable island nation, and the needs there are greater than ever before.

Presbyterian Disaster Relief has already set up a donation line for help. They are also gathering information about the safety of mission partners. We pray for Haiti
