We are the Hands and Feet!!!


Haiti. We can’t say that name right now without images of hurting people and toppled buildings coming up in our minds. It’s hard to find the beauty with so many suffering. Over the past few days, however, beauty has shown up in the recovery of an 8 year old and a 10 year old who are alive but had spent a whole week barred under rubble that came from the first quake. Beauty has also come with help from many organizations and individuals around the world bringing food, supplies, and their talents. It’s tempting sometimes when things like this happen, to think that God isn’t there but clearly He is! He bids us all to come join Him and be a part of the healing – not just for the Haitians, but for the healing and growth of our own hearts.

Here are some organizations that are helping in Haiti.
