Dear Ones in Christ,
Two days after Monday’s earthquake in Haiti, the magnitude of damage and suffering has become clear. When we understand the suffering of Haiti’s people, a country already beset by poverty, our own hearts grieve on their behalf. The Holy Spirit moves us in compassion to care and we dare not quench that leading. When we act in faith to the Holy Spirit’s leading, and move to help those suffering through prayer and aid, everyone is blessed. Our own souls are comforted as we act as Jesus himself would act in the face of suffering.
Please be in prayer for Haiti and the rescue and relief operation under way. If you are able, please also consider supporting the following ministries serving in Christ’s name:

May the Lord’s love and care and call be heard in the midst of this disaster,
Pastor Mark, Pastor Bill and Pastor Martin
Gal. 6:2 Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ.
