Most of Port-au-Prince, the capitol city, was destroyed and there has been tremendous loss of life and property throughout the entire country. We, as a church, have yet another opportunity to stand up and make a difference by responding to the needs of these precious people.
Here’s how to get involved:
1) Pray for those affected, pray for those responding to the need and pray about how God would have you get involved.
2) Stay Informed from organizations that are on the ground-level in Haiti. These include: Samaritan’s Purse, Hand of Hope & Love a Child.
3) Donate Supplies: We’re collecting large black trash bags, flat bed sheets & blankets. Bring items to the church.
