While pictures are released and reports continue to bombard us with heartbreaking information and stories from a devastated nation it is hard to believe that just 11 months ago we were there working. How vividly I remember the palpable darkness and the heaviness of a nation so immersed in voodoo and ravaged by natural disasters and the poverty and disease arising from these.
As easily as I can recall with all of my senses those moments there are others that reach out to me and remind me how precious Haiti is. The children we worked with held their own worship services in the evening, full of singing, dancing and a joy I had never experienced before. A handful of these children reached for my hand and grabbed my heart in the process.
Every night we stayed in Les Cayes we prayed on a hill overlooking the land and proclaimed the love of God and His promises for this nation, calling it out of darkness and into the marvelous light of Christ. Once again I find myself voicing these promises and declaring hope over Haiti.
Haiti needs people who can and will go but also people who can and will give.
Give to the Haiti Earthquake Relief fund
AIM is mobilizing teams in the aftermath of this devastating earthquake.
AIM Dominican Republic base director Miguel and Kristen Shaul
live about four hours from Port-au-Prince and are coordinating
immediate relief efforts. There are also alumni from the AIM World Race
program traveling to Haiti soon to help prepare for short-term teams.
Our mission teams have been to Haiti, have fallen in love with the
people there, and are very anxious to help. See Ashley Musick’s blog for an example of one broken heart for Haiti.

Donations go to earthquake relief efforts.
Our primary goal is to bring first-response relief to those in
need with supplies such as food, blankets, shelters, basic health care,
and more. Our secondary goal is to identify communities in which we can
get involved in long-term rebuilding. We ask for prayers for God’s
favor in leading our efforts and for partnership in funding this
response.
