PRAYER: God of compassion, please watch over the people of Haiti, and weave out of these terrible happenings the wonders of your goodness and grace. Surround those who have been affected by tragedy with a sense of your present love, and hold them in faith. Though they are lost in grief, may they find you and be comforted. Guide us as your Church to find ways of providing assistance that heal wounds and provide hope. Help us to remember that when one of your children suffers we all suffer. We pray through Jesus Christ who was dead, but lives and rules this world with you in the power of your Holy Spirit. Amen.
