Haiti Earthquake Appeal
The largest
earthquake in Haitis recorded history struck Port -
au - Prince on 12th January 2010.
Later quakes were
less devastating only because so much damage had already been done. It is at
times like this that the church comes into its own. Rather than wait for money
to be raised, we sent £20,000 on the day that the news first broke about this
disaster. Please be assured that this money is going directly to the Methodist
Church in Haiti. The local churches are probably one of the best ways of
ensuring that your gift is used where it is most urgently needed. Your own
gifts will then be used to reimburse the World Mission Fund—any excess will go
to Haiti.
