I will definetely keep Haiti in my prayers. It has affect the campus of UMass where I am studying. A number of our students are Haitian and have family in Haiti. So, please know that those who have faith in God will be praying in Amherst as well.
Hi Brandi,
We miss you in Lincoln. Thank you for praying for our brothers and sisters in Haiti. It sounds like you are connected with people who are directly impacted by the disaster.
Hi Mike,
This afternoon we raised $1200 for the Nebraska Orphan Project online. You can read the details here.
Miss you guys! Keep up the great work and glad we could help in some small way.
Leslie,
When I read your message, I was hit pretty hard (I had to take a second to gather myself) with the fact that while you guys are in Oregon, Brandi Douglas in Massachusetts (see first comment), we're all so tightly-connected to one another in Christ. I feel the same way about our Haitian brothers and sisters too. Keep praying and thank you for raising money.
