As most of you may know a massive, 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck Haiti near the capital of Port-au-Prince on Tuesday of this week. The damages to that country are extensive and the number of injured and or dead is estimated to be in the thousands. Here is an opportunity for us to help those in need. If you would like to donate to this cause please make your donation to Spring Meadows Church of Christ, noting Haiti Relief fund in the memo section. Monies collected will be delivered to Healing Hands International – who are currently working on relief efforts. They have a group of folks heading down that way this week.
Additionally in speaking with Sean Judge (Healing Hands International Assistant Shipping Director, Youth Development) they are looking for Church contacts in that area as focal/distribution centers. If you happen to know of anyone in that area, their contact information would be appreciated. You may send their contact information to Dwayne Moore (dmoore27@charter.net) or you may contact Sean directly. His contact information in noted below:
