Respond to the Crisis in Haiti

We feel that it is important and appropriate to respond to the earthquake crisis in Haiti.  Please prayerfully consider donating to this cause.  The best place to make donations is with Lutheran World Relief.  100% of your donation to LWR goes directly to supplies, and support for people in Haiti.  Thank you for your generous donations and your partnership is helping these brothers and sisters.  To donate now go to:  http://www.lwr.org
