Prayers and Donations for Haiti
We continue to pray for the people of Haiti and ask that you please remember them during your prayer throughout the day.
Please join us in prayer (written by Sister Camille Brouillard, IHM):
We grieve O Loving God, for the people of Haiti,
Who continue to suffer the ravages of nature over and over.
Hear the cry of your people,
Touch the hearts of those with abundance to hear their desperation
and come to their aid.
Be with those who grieve the loss of loved ones, homes, churches,
markets and employment.
Touch their hearts with some hope for a better tomorrow.
Send your angels of mercy to be with them.
Amen.
If you are able to donate, consider the following credible organizations.
- Catholic Relief Services
Sister Michele Denton, IHM, in Haiti in 2009
- Mercy Corps
- Save the Children
- Fonkoze (Haiti)
- Red Cross
- World Food Programme (United Nations)
- Partners in Progress (Haiti)
- Doctors Without Borders
You can even text message a donation using your mobile phone. The Red Cross in conjunction with the U.S. State Department set up this service. Text “Haiti” to #90999 to donate $10.00. You’ll receive a text message saying “To confirm your $10 donation to Red Cross Int’l Response Fund reply with YES. Reply HELP for help or visit RedCross.org.” Once you respond YES, you will be charged $10 on your wireless bill. I just made my donation using this method.
The IHM Sisters (my religious community) has also set up an emergency fund. Those wishing to make donations can send a check made payable to the IHM Sisters with a note in the memo line indicating that the donation is for “Haiti Earthquake Relief.” Checks should be mailed to:
IHM Sisters
