Prayers for the people of Haiti
::
Comfort my people... -- Isaiah 40
The description of Tuesday, Jan. 12, as the "worst day in the history of Haiti," is heartbreaking. Before the earthquake, this is a place of great suffering, the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.
Our Haitian neighbors are in great need, and we give thanks for our capacity as a connectional church to respond.
Mark your offerings "Haiti Earthquake" and your gift will go 100% through The Advance of The United Methodist Church to meet the needs of those impacted by the earthquake. The UMCOR Advance number for Haiti is 418325. Health kits are a high priority, and you can get directions for making health kits by clicking here.
Your support of Stop Hunger Now is also a gift to Haitians now even more in need of food. Mark any offerings "Stop Hunger Now -- Haiti"
In Mississippi, we know the comfort of the gifts and presence of God's people in the wake of natural disaster.
Thank you for your response -- your prayers, your offerings and in time your presence -- as comfort is extended to Haiti.
With gratitude for the connection in mission we share,Hope |
