Haiti

As I'm sure many of you have heard, Haiti was struck by a magnitude 7 earthquake on Tuesday, January 12. It was the strongest earthquake to hit the island in two hundred years. Thousands are estimated to have been killed, and much of Haiti (particularly the capital, Port-au-Prince) is reported to be in ruins.

Two YASCers, Mallory and Jude, are currently serving at an Anglican seminary in Port-au-Prince. Both fortunately survived (please see link for more details) the earthquake, although the seminary and other church buildings were badly damaged. Please pray for them.
