Prayer Request: It is believed that over three million citizens of Haiti are effected by the recent earthquake.. The epicenter of the quake was centered approximately 10 miles west of Port-au-Prince. Offices, hotels, houses and shops have collapsed. The city is without electricity and the telephone network has been overloaded with calls making it impossible to reach friends and family.
The presidential palace is in ruins and many churches have been destroyed. Hospitals that were not directly impacted by the quake are overflowing and the search for survivors is intense. Already one of the poorest countries in the world, this catastrophe will exacerbate the suffering felt by many already living with hunger and poverty.
