EBC family,

This weekend and next, during our Sunday morning services, we will be taking some time to pray for the nation and people of Haiti. Most everyone has heard about the destruction caused by the earthquake earlier this week, and we want to be involved in helping bring hope to a seemingly hopeless situation here.  We will also be taking a special offering for the next couple weeks in order to give to the rebuilding efforts of a mission’s organization on the ground in Haiti, for the hope of rebuilding churches that have been destroyed.  We’ll update you on this soon.  Please be prepared to give to that.

If you are wondering what to think about the earthquake, and where God is in the midst of a terrible tragedy like this, I would encourage you to look up a couple resources and read them for comfort, encouragement, and a Christ-centered view of this.  You can click the links below for this.

Praying together for Haiti, and our church,
