Hearts and Hands for Haiti

I have no idea where to begin. This day in Haiti has been full of contrasts.
We worshiped this morning with the Methodist congregation here in Petionville. They are gracious and loving people. The entire service was in Creole so we did not understand a word - other than Jesus. But we certainly felt the spirit and love of God and the people.
This afternoon we toured Port Au Prince. There are not words to describe the devastion and destruction of the earthquake. It is poverty on top of poverty.
Yet, the joy and faith of our Christian brothers and sisters is a shining light in the darkness.
What a priviledge, and how humbling, it is to work and stand with them.
May God's light shine through us as brightly as it shines in these Haitian Saints.
Peace, Kathryn
