Help for Haiti

It seems I cannot take my eyes off of the news and reports of this weeks earthquake tragedy in Haiti.  I have been thinking about it night and day, and praying for the millions of people effected by it all.  It makes you just feel helpless seeing all the devastation... 
Our sweet friends Jeff and Tanya adopted their son Stephenson from Haiti, and on her blogs she has many different ways that people can help.  Their family blog is private, but she also has this blog, documenting the months that they hosted two little haitian girls while they were in the states getting much needed medical treatment. There are numerous organizations, and ways to give listed on here.  So go check it out!  Keep praying for the many victims of this horrible tragedy, the volunteers and rescue teams, as well as families who are waiting to adopt.  Many still don't know the status of their children or the orphanages.  Millions of lives have been affected in so many different ways. Pray that food and water can get dispersed as soon as possible, and that medical attention and supplies would be abundant.  
Another great site to check out is the Livesay family blog.  Go here, to read about this sweet family serving in Haiti. What God has done in their lives, and through their lives is truly amazing.
