Speed the Light is partnering with Convoy of Hope and their desire to respond to the tragedy that has hit Haiti. On Tuesday, January 12, 2010 a 7.0 earthquake struck the country, leveling buildings, cutting off communications, and resulting in many people injured or dead. Convoy of Hope is establishing an emergency command center just outside the city of Port-au-Prince by which food, water, and supplies will be distributed to victims. They are also preparing for the massive recovery process that will be forthcoming. As part of this effort Convoy has requested two necessary vehicles. One will be used in transporting people and food, while the other will be used for both food and construction supplies. Total cost for these vehicles will be approximately $100,000.Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere with many of its nearly 10 million residents living in abject poverty. This is an enormous opportunity for the students and parents of the Assemblies of God to arise and respond generously. What an incredible expression of the compassion of Jesus it would be for us to provide these vehicles immediately!

With students and parents from across the nation, we can meet this urgent need.
