Long Term Help for Haiti
Bringing the nation of Haiti back to some semblance of modern civilization will take much time, effort and money. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance  has been sending funds to help hospitals and food agencies as they seek to meet the overwhelming need. The special fund to aid in relief work will continue to accept donations. Click here to donate. You can also donate through your congregation, please mark your check Haiti Relief, PDA account number DR000064. If you find yourself stuggling with why things like this happen, you might be interested in two studies produced by The Thoughtful Christian - Finding God in Times of Tragedy (youth) and Where is God When Disaster Strikes? (adult). Both are available for download here. If you wish to do something tangible, check with Church World Service about creating kits that can be distributed. Go to www.churchworldservice.org and follow the links for the kits. These are excellent ways to involve people, especially children and youth. Please keep the aid agencies and especially the people of Haiti in your prayers.

On Tuesdays, the staff of the Presbyery of Tampa Bay meets for their weekly staff meeting and begins with a time of prayer. We pray for specific churches in our presbytery on a rotating basis as well as staff at the Louisville denominational offices. We include those minister members of presbytery celebrating birthdays, as well as prayer concerns of which we are made aware for those in our worshipping community. We also set aside time on other mornings to pray together. If you have or know of a need, let us know and we'll include it in our prayer time.
