haiti disaster emergency appeal

A cheque for £1800 was sent away today, which added to the £1000 sent last week, amounts to £2800 for the haiti disaster emergency appeal. Thank you to everyone who gave.

Loving God of creation,
at this time of devastation we hold before you the people of Haiti.
When the damage is unimaginable, and the suffering seems overwhelming,
remind us that every person affected is loved, honoured and precious in your sight.
We remember all those who have been hurt;
all who have lost their homes, livelihoods and loved ones.
Work through us to bring healing to broken and distorted lives,
peace to those who have been thrown into despair, light to those in darkness,
and hope to those who fear.
We ask this in the name of Jesus in whom all life and grace is found.
Amen
