Haiti: A Different Look

A Haitian – born lawyer once told me, “What you see on the news is not all there is to Haiti.”

With that simple and eloquent statement I began to consume news differently, particularly news about Haiti.

Her words began to open my mind and understanding about Haiti being a place that the news does not always position well or capture correctly.

I have put together a few resources about Haiti that show you some of the events that your local evening news will tend not to show.

I love Haiti. I also feel a deep obligation to stand with suffering people every where. I remember distinctly the people who have stood with me in my challenging times.

I can do no less.

Finally, I pray the Aaronic blessing over Haiti and her people – NUMBERS 6:24-26 ESV

Blessings, Kimberly

24 The Lord bless you and keep you;
25 the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you;
26 the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.
