I think I can speak for everyone in our group that we are very saddened by the tragic earthquake that took place earlier this week. While I am glad to watch the media coverage of what’s happening in Haiti and see the joyful stories of people being found alive and reunited with loved ones, it’s also heartbreaking to see images of all the devastation and loss.
I don’t have a lot to say about this topic because, really, what can you say. There just aren’t words. I did want to share the following information. Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) has served in Haiti for more than 50 years and will continue to do so for many years to come. I wanted to share the link to MCC’s website so people can keep up with their efforts and can see how they can help. There is certainly a financial need, and will be for years to come. Click on the link below to learn more about MCC’s response to the earthquake. You can also hear a firsthand account from an MCC worker who is currently serving in Haiti and experienced the earthquake along with his wife. Continue to pray for the people of Haiti and those who have traveled there to help.
