No doubt you have heard of the catastrophic earthquake in Haiti that has already claimed thousands of lives. Thousands more are severely injured and the established hospitals are in heaps of rubble upon the ground.
It is a sad thing to see, and if you are anything like us your hearts mourn for these people. We are all made in the image of God.
Also, if you are anything like us, sometimes it is hard to know what to do and how to help. Prayer is the most effective and powerful thing we can do, but we can NOT stop there.
If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?
-James 2:15-16
Doctors without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has been, and is currently in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Currently, all donations are going directly to Haiti. For more information, read this short update here.
A vast majority (87% in 2008) of funds raised go directly into the field to save lives. You can give, knowing every dollar is used wisely.
There are other ways to directly contribute and help, this is just one option.
Thank you for thinking beyond yourself and helping save these lives.
Our best to you,
-Micah & Steph
