Helping Mend Lives

I'm sure you all watched the news and saw the catastrophe of the earthquake in Haiti last evening. After seeing such devastation, my own heart strings are tugged, especially since my loved on has family there. I am hopeful in this; the Creator knew and knows how to mend broken lives even in the midst of catastrophe, He is an ever present in time of need.

Maybe you too were moved with compassion and may be wondering what can you do to help?

I know two immediate ways that will take less than 5 minutes to complete:

1. PRAY. Please pray for strength, peace, wisdom, resources, and restoration to the Haitian people.

2. GIVE: Ask all your friends to text the word "yele" to the number 501501. You can text up to 6 times using this method. Each time you do, it donates $5 to Wyclef Jean's Charity, Yele Haiti.

To give to the charity more directly, please visit http://www.yele.org/ and click on Donate Now and donate that way.

Thank you in advance for consideration and support in this time of great need. May the bread you cast upon the water today return to you after many days when you are in need. (Ecclesiastes 11:1).
