CRM Teams Provide Critical Support in Haiti

Members of CRM-US staff based in Miami and New Orleans are on the ground in Haiti working with other long-term missionaries based in the disaster-struck country. This network of people was able to immediately establish supply lines into Haiti from the Dominican Republic.

So far they have:

• Moved in numerous shipments of fuel and supplies which have sustained field hospitals.
• Secured multiple vehicles moving in 24,000 pounds of fuel/supplies in each convoy.
• Established direct contact with dozens of agencies who were, or are still, in Haiti.
• Created a coordinated distribution point in Port au Prince.
• Provided critical supplies that are making it possible for missionaries and other NGO workers to remain and provide assistance in Haiti.

The effectiveness of this operation has been so remarkable that representatives of both the UN and the US Army have approached our teams to ask how they are getting the supplies to the people so quickly and to provide both vehicles and military escort.

PREPARING MY HEART

2010 CRM Lent Devotional Email

Lent is a season of reflection and preparation as the global Church prepares itself for the Easter celebration. In 2009, CRM's staff from around the world contributed their reflections for our third Lent Devotional. What they wrote has been gathered into a book and woven around the theme of Lent as a "passage to transformation." The book brings together the power of Scripture and the rich and varied experiences of our staff.

Here on our website, we are offering you the opportunity to receive the benefit of these devotionals as a daily email throughout Lent, beginning on Ash Wednesday (February 17) and ending on Easter Sunday (April 4).

To sign-up for the daily Lent email, visit the Lent Devotional email signup.
