The devastation in Haiti as a result of the recent earthquake is so extreme that it defies description. The need for aid is huge and immediate in light of the scale of human misery.

Contributions can be funneled through Development and Peace by using the following toll-free number which is specifically for Haiti Emergency: 1-888-664-3387. If you contribute before February 12, 2010, your contribution will be matched by the Canadian Government.

    Blessed Teresa of Calcutta said: "The greatest poverty of mankind is that of not knowing Christ...... "People are hungry for God. People need love. Are we aware of this? Do we know this? Do we see it? Do we have eyes to see it? Often our gaze wanders without settling upon anyone ... As if we are here for nothing more than to pass through this world. We should open our eyes, open our eyes and see."
