Yesterday, Wednesday, in a pure act of faith and trust in our generosity as a local Church, I sent $250,000 to Catholic Relief Services as a “quick-start” to their relief efforts. It will provide immediate food, water, medicine and clothes to those who managed to “survive” Tuesday’s 7.0 earthquake. I hope our diocese is ultimately good for 1.5-2 million. We did that well for the far away tsunami in the Indian Ocean. Look at the pictures from from Haiti and tell me they are not crying out for help.
