This Sunday, we will spend a section of our worship time to pray for the victims, their families, as well as the aid workers who are working so hard right now to bring relief to Haiti. Many humanitarian organizations have mentioned that the best way to help at this moment is to make monetary donations. While that is certainly the case from a certain perspective, we trust in the sovereignty and goodness of our God, who alone is in control and listens to our prayers. And our prayer is that help be sent to Haiti as swiftly and effectively as possible.
To make it convenient for you to make donations to trusted aid organizations, below are a few links and directions you can follow.
