Text ‘Haiti’ to 90999

In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. John 14:2-3
On Tuesday evening, a 7.0-magnitude earthquake struck the poorest country in the Americas.

Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince, is in ruins. Thousands have died. Perhaps tens of thousands. Perhaps more. The Red Cross estimates that three million are reeling from this devasting quake.

There are times like this when I am not even sure what to pray for. So I will just pray. Will you join me?

Heavenly Father, we give you thanks and praise. Our brothers and sisters are suffering tonight Lord, for reasons only you understand. Your healing hand is needed to satisfy the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of so many Lord. Be with the people, Lord. Be with your children.

Bless the poor in spirit, bless those who mourn, bless the meek. Give them the fruits of the earth, provide comfort, and deliver the kingdom of heaven.

Someone tonight is trapped Lord. Hurting. Afraid. In darkness.

Be the light. Free them. Save them.
We call upon you in the name of your Son, Jesus Christ.

Amen

    Thank you, Ed.

    The brother of a good friend of mine is currently missing in Haiti and she has no idea where he might be. Her family immigrated here decades ago, but still have ties there, as most American-Haitians do. There are many anxious families here in the U.S. who waiting for word on the fate of their loved ones. may God be with them as well as those in Haiti.
