Japan Relief - the power of one



The tragedy that has occurred in Japan is beyond belief. The suffering and damage seems to have no end. Earthquake and tsunami damage compounded by the threat of radioactivity from the nuclear reactors is so large and so surreal it is hard to know where to begin to help. Good people around the world watch with awe and amazement at the strength and character of the Japanese people.

We are so far away, but may I ask that each of us take a moment to see what we can do to help. Monetary relief by reputable agencies does make a difference. Perhaps your church has a humanitarian arm that you have confidence in. The American Red Cross has a strong reputation for providing relief quickly, with low administrative costs.

Be generous. Think of the children. Every little bit counts!
