Haiti Disaster Response
jay | January 16, 2010 | 3:51 pmHi everyone! Carrie and I are both doing very well and we’re working on our January newsletter that will be out to you soon.
In the meantime we wanted to pass on some information about how you can join Campus Crusade’s response to the ongoing disaster in Haiti.
Even as the search to rescue people in the rubble turns into a recovery effort there are still hundreds of thousands of people now homeless, hungry, sick and possibly injured. Regardless of the reason WHY God allowed this to happen, our response needs to be filtered through the words of our Lord:
Matthew 25:40
And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
You may or may not know about the Global Aid Network (GAiN), but it is the humanitarian aid arm of Campus Crusade. Currently there is already a group of GAiN staff in the suffering island nation as well as the campus ministry team that is there to reach their own college students (the last I heard, the national director still had not located one of his parents).
The need from this disaster creates a need that surpasses political and ideological barriers. Please join us in giving by going to http://GAiNusa.org and share as the Lord would lead you.
Thank you for reading and, we’ll be sharing with you again soon!
(I typed this up on my phone, so I apologised for any typos.)
