Haiti Earthquake Relief
Our special relief offering collected $876 that has already been forwarded to the North American Mission Board. Southern Baptists have already raised enough to send 150,000 "Buckets of Hope" to Haiti. A gift of $40 will pay for the food to fill a five-gallon bucket with enough food to feed a Haitian family for a week, plus ship it to Haiti.

More information about Southern Baptist Convention's response to the Haiti earthquake is available on the Web site for the Northern American Mission Board. You can also send your Haiti relief offering through that Web site. For details about how you can pray for Haiti, click here.
