Haiti Relief

Staff Leader: Diane Presley
Volunteer Leader: Judy Rutty

 

 

Like most of you, we've been praying for the relief workers in Haiti and for all who have lost loved ones. Please continue to pray for the people of Haiti and the rescue workers. On January 17 and 24 we will be receiving a special offering to benefit relief efforts in Haiti. 100% of what you give will be given to provide aid in Haiti through United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR). If you'd like to make a contribution online, click on this link, choose OTHER and put HAITI in the comment field.

In addition, we are also going to collect items this weekend for Health Kits to go to Haiti. Check out the details below, or click on the photo of the flyer for a printable list.

 
Already a country living in extreme poverty, the massive earthquake on January 12 has caused incalculable loss of life and destruction
to the homes and livelihood of millions of people.

United Methodists have a long-standing relationship with Haiti through
the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR). Be assured that 100% of your gift supports relief efforts in Haiti.

If you would like to donate, please:
