There's nobody in the seat we're saving for you...and there are people here who care about you.
Haiti
Thank you to every person and every church who interceded and gave funds for Haiti. This is nothing less than a magnified scene of Jesus's parable of the Good Samaritan; not one injured by the road but 200,000 dead, thousands of orphans, perhaps a million traumatized people and overwhelming need.
Please, please give and encourage everyone to give something. If everyone gives, it makes a huge difference!

(clearly marked Haiti-relief only or Haiti-where needed most).
Evangelical Friends Church-Eastern Region sponsors a group of Friends Churches in Haiti with 2000-2500 attenders. Already they are sharing with needy people clean drinking water from a deep well and generator-powered pump. Funds from Eastern Region funds built this well! For more information and the latest on Friends and World Relief efforts, go to www.efcer.org and look for Haiti Bulletin #3 on their home page.
Three strategic prayer requests (in addition to what the Lord may be putting on your heart).
1. Pray with "groans that words cannot express" as "the Spirit himself intercedes for us." (Rom 8:26-28)
2. Pray that Haitians will help Haitians, and break the mold of cultural dependency.
3. Pray for the bi-racial upper 10% of the population that have wealth and power but few evangelical Christians!
From a heart that cares, Chuck Mylander, EFM Director
