Haiti Suffers from Earthquake
See below for a list of relief items being collected
On January 12, 2010 Haiti was devastated by an earthquake. The poorest
country in the Western hemisphere needs our help to provide food, shelter,
medical supplies and most of all they need to be told about our Lord, Jesus Christ
for their salvation.
The Croton Church of Christ is working with two established missions in Haiti.
Both provide schools, clinics, and Churches for the people.
