Earthquake update
Posted Jan 13th, 2010
Thank you so much for all your emails asking what you can do to help the St. Clare’s community. We’ve set up an Earthquake Relief Fund that we will use to respond to this tragedy. Click here to donate.
We still have not been able to reach anyone on the ground at St. Clare’s. The phone lines and Internet are down. I’m so worried. The reports out of Port-au-Prince are devastating. A recent AP story described Port-au-Prince as “largely destroyed…damage is staggering…tens of thousands of people are homeless…Many gravely injured people sit in the street, pleading for doctors many hours after the quake. In public squares thousands of people are singing hymns and holding hands…” Click here for a BBC report.
We’re praying and waiting and will keep updating this blog as we know more. Thank you again for your prayers, financial support, and for helping us spread the word. With love and hope, Margaret
