Haiti Earthquake: Help provide relief and support

Yesterday's earthquake in Haiti requires a quick and massive response. There are few things that you and I can do directly to help the people of Haiti in this time of desperate need other than give financial support for supplies and recovery efforts. We are blessed with safety, security and material abundance (yes, even in this time of our own economic struggle, the earthquake surely reminds us how fortunate we are). The Union for Reform Judaism is collecting funds for Haiti's recovery and relief needs. I just gave. Will you join me? Donate Here Now

I also encourage you to make time for prayer in response to this tragic disaster. Offer prayers of gratitude for your own well-being, prayers for the strength and welfare of those hurt and displaced by the earthquake, and prayer for the dead and their families. We will, of course, include prayers for Haiti in our upcoming Shabbat services.
