Bishop Duracin Discusses the Needs of the Haitian People in the Aftermath of the Earthquake

Following the devastating 7.0-magnitude earthquake that hit Haiti on January 12, 2010, Episcopal Relief & Development has been working closely with the Episcopal Diocese of Haiti to assist survivors. In this video, Bishop Duracin thanks Episcopal Relief & Development and discusses the amount of need that still exists in the Diocese of Haiti.

"You see the disaster that we have here.  You see College St. Pierre, how it is.  We thank ERD who have come here to try to help with this.  Because everything has been destroyed, so we are in this situation where the Diocese of Haiti needs everyone.  We need everyone.  We need the whole church to help us to rebuild the country.  And now, we are taking care of so many people who are on the campus - so we are in very, very serious need."

To assist those suffering in the wake of this disaster, donate online to Episcopal Relief & Development's Haiti Earthquake Response Fund or call 1.800.334.7626, ext. 5129. Checks with "Haiti Earthquake Response Fund" in the memo line can be mailed to Episcopal Relief & Development, PO Box 7058 Merrifield, VA 22116-7058.
