Episcopal News Service piece on the Good Work Episcopal Relief and Development is doing in the Caribbean.
"Know that you are in our prayers, and those of this whole Church," Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori wrote September 5 in a message emailed to Diocese of Haiti Bishop Zache Duracin. "God never abandons us, even though the night seems long and dark."
The one-two-three punch that has hit the Caribbean with more to come, is "pretty unprecedented," said Matthew St. John, Episcopal Relief and Development's program officer for Latin America and the Caribbean.
"The situation in Haiti is extremely serious and there's a possibility for it to get even more serious," he told ENS on September 5.
The situation is also severely hampering relief efforts, ERD said in a news release, which also contains information about how to help those efforts.
