Haiti Relief

Posted by Isaac

Last night I was watching the news about Haiti and my son came in, he wanted a glass of water. I don’t know if I have ever thought to be grateful to be able to give him a glass of water. Last night I was.

I thought about the hundreds of thousands of people in Haiti (and elsewhere) who cannot give their kid something as simple as a glass of water. We can’t fix that for everyone but we can fix it for someone.

We should be grateful for all that we have and generous with what we have been given— toward that end, we will be offering some opportunities through Samaritan’s Purse for us to respond together this Sunday.

Here is what Summit is doing now:
