HAITI NEEDS YOUR HELP

The recent earthquake in Haiti has devastated children and families in the Western Hemisphere's poorest nation. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck just ten miles from the heart of Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital, where people are left to search through rubble in hopes of finding loved ones. At least 3 million people have been affected by these disasters.

As a church it is our heart's desire to arise as God's hands and feet in such a time as this, and so we had a donation request during last Sunday service.

If you have missed out in donating, this SUNDAY there will be a LAST collecting donations at service to help support the relief efforts for those affected by the disaster. All the donations received from the church members will be sent forth to the World Vision whom has worked in Haiti for over 30 years and has 800 staff in the country. They are currently on the ground responding to the crisis. They have been distributing prepositioned emergency survival kits — including food, water, blankets and tents — to affected children and families.

Alternatively, you can donate online now to send emergency aid to the people of Haiti!

Let's continue to keep the situation in prayer, and lets also prepare ourselves to give generously in reflection of God's love to those who desperately need it right now.

You can help meet the life-or-death needs of the children and families affected by this terrible disaster!

Ps 65:5-7
5 You answer us with awesome deeds of righteousness, O God our Savior, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas,
6 who formed the mountains by your power, having armed yourself with strength,
7 who stilled the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations.
