Haiti Relief Efforts
As a church, our hearts ache for those who are dealing with the tragic aftermath of the earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12, 2010. We cry out to God and ask for His strength, peace, comfort, and protection for the people of Haiti. We pray for miracles in the midst of the wreckage.
LifeChurch.tv is joining forces with other churches to offer prayer and financial support for disaster relief efforts in Haiti. Here's how you can participate:
Prayer Gathering
In partnership with other churches, we hosted an online Night of Prayer where thousands of prayers were shared for the people of Haiti and the relief efforts there.
Give
Give to LifeChurch.tv's Compassion Ministry. From Saturday, January 16 - Friday, January 22 all gifts that are designated to Compassion will go directly to support Haiti disaster relief efforts through our two partners, Convoy of Hope and Samaritan's Purse. You can also give directly to these reputable organizations and find the latest updates on their websites:
Convoy of Hope http://www.convoyofhope.org/ already has an extensive network of churches in Haiti through which it provides relief, so they are situated to take action quickly.
