As you can imagine, I have been very concerned about the child I sponsor, Saint Hilaire Germema, who turned 12 on December 5. I received a letter recently from Compassion, but nothing specific about the welfare of my child. I fear the worst, am praying for the best. I fear the worst, am praying for the best.

Please join me in praying for Saint Hilaire Germima, her family, Compassion International, ministries in Haiti, the relief efforts, and of course, the people of Haiti.

It’s often difficult to know how to help or to whom to give. I am giving to Compassion International because they have proven their integrity.

If you would like to help Compassion, go to www.compassion.com/haitiearthquake, or call 800-336-7676.

If you are an author or aspiring author, I am having a special Help Haiti sale on some of my products, and will be donating 75% of the proceeds to Compassion. (It would be 100%, but I have to take out taxes and administrative fees.) You can find out about those products at www.wordstoprofit.com/helphaiti.html.
