Our prayers are with the victims of the massive 9.0 earthquake in Japan, the tsunami, and aftershocks. Please pray for those directly affected by this natural disaster and the impending nuclear plant problems.  Go to either LCMS.org or to Lutheran Church Charities at LCC.org to see how you might contribute meaningful help with a Christian witness. You might also sponsor local fund-raisers to add to your prayer support. Even though Japan's economy is light-year's ahead of Haiti's, neither of their recovery efforts are going to be completed any time soon.
