Along with you, I've been reacting to news from Haiti with such shock and sadness. In the coming days, no doubt, we'll learn more about the devastation there and hopefully we'll get a better sense of how we might be helpful in efforts to rebuild. For now, I want to share two links with you. The first is the link for Presbyterian Disaster Assistance PDA is an extremely efficient and helpful organization in situations like these, and I'm confident that the financial resources we funnel through them will be put to good use.
The second link is to an organization to which First Presbyterian Church, Racine is connected. Linda and Joe Markee, Julie Markee's parents, sit on the board of The Haiti Foundation of Hope. While this organization serves communities in more rural, northern parts of Haiti, their work and ministry is no doubt impacted by the recent earthquake. Joe and Linda will be coming to First Presbyterian Church this spring to give a presentation on their work. It will be good in the coming weeks to learn from them more about how we as a congregation might be able to respond.
