First hurricanes, now a powerful earthquake has rocked and crushed the Haitian capital Port-au-Prince. News reports are rolling in about the chaos that is ensuing as people struggle to free family members from the rubble. And already, cities in this country are pledging to send relief workers and the Red Cross will release $200,000 to help. Trouble is, with the airport reportedly damaged by the quake, getting aid to the island is going to prove difficult.
O God, help, help, help!

And your brother's former roomate at Hartwick is living there. He is on Facebook with him. Pray for him and his family.

I just heard a report that Christians went around the city singing.. a beautiful sound. Hope in the middle of disaster.
