Please pray for the people of Haiti! 7 Months, 3 Weeks ago Was this user helpful?: 0  
I just wanted to encourage others to pray for the people of Haiti as well as all the brothers and sisters that are laboring there! There are some missionaries that I know in Haiti, they are fine...but there are still so many people trapped under rubble. There is so much devastation there right now.....please join me in praying for Haiti!

These people are destitute, so in addition to prayer, they need material help too. Pres clinton and Pres Bush have joined at the behest of Pres Obama to set up a fund for the Haitians, but I personally don't have much confidence in them. They didn't handle our tax money very well while in office, so I highly doubt they'll handle donations very well.

My personal preference is to work through either the Red Cross, or a known church org that's working relief efforts.

Co-laboring with y'all...Mayan

Our church elders are putting together a list of reputable organizations that can be trusted to handle donations properly. When they've sent it to the church family, I'll copy it in here.

Meanwhile, add to your prayers the northern town of Port de Paix...a good friend is a missionary at an orphanage there. The damage was slight in that town, but there's a lot of grieving as folks learn of the devastation and the losses of friends and family in Port Au Prince.

Hi Laura,

That list of reputable churches will be of great value. Sadly, this is the sort of timeframe where unscrupulous people run scams to bilk people out of money that 'should' be going to the destitute. God 'has' promised to take His wrath out on these people...praise God

Thanks for your hard work in caring for the needy!

In Him...Mayan

As I mentioned, my church elders have been compiling a list of ministries/organizations that can be trusted to handle donations for relief in Haiti.

Go to http://homelandmissions.org/news/ to see info on each one and links to their sites.

And don't forget to pray not only for physical relief, but that the spiritual relief of the true gospel be widespread in Haiti, in the wake of devastation.
