My heart is heavy for the people of Haiti. It's hard to comprehend the devastion, the loss, the suffering, the chaos. People missing. People dead. I grieve the loss of life. I feel helpless, but what I can do - what we all can do is pray.
May God comfort and be with the Haitians and worried loved ones around the world. Lord, bless the able with wisdom so they are strong in their work to set up relief efforts. Give them Your grace and mercy so that they may be patient, hard working, tireless and devout.
At a time like this, five dollars WILL make ALL the difference. This is a list of Canadian organizations that have a track record of providing aid to Haiti (as taken from ctv.ca) :
- Canadian Red Cross
- Unicef Canada
- The Humanitarian Coalition
- Plan Canada
- Direct Relief International
- Doctors Without Borders
- Salvation Army
- World Vision Canada
- SOS Children's Villages
- Samaritan's Purse
- The Mennonite Central Committee
- Centre d'etude et de cooperation internationale (CISC)
- FTC Canada
- United Nations World Food Programme
He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand. - Psalm 40:2
