<p class=MsoNormal>Dear Friends,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> By
now you and I have a fuller picture of the devastation the Island nation of
Haiti is in. After scanning several pages of news the presumed death toll
is to hit in the hundreds of thousands. More than that many are wondering
the street, injured, scared - no food, no water.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We can do something. You might not have much to offer,
but the urgent need for water, food and medical supplies begs that we don’t
judge how much we can give but rather will we give. I looked at two organizations
that we have a relationship with and both are receiving donations and sending
supplies, doctors and planes as fast as the one runway in Haiti can manage.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Tonight, at combined HG we will be taking an offering for
Samaritan’s purse.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If you’d rather give online I encourage you to do so
at: <a href="http://www.samaritanspurse.org/">http://www.samaritanspurse.org/</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Pray that God would reign and not fear or chaos or
lawlessness. Pray too for the men and women of the churches there and
around the world would rise up.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In Christ,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Mike<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
