HELPING JAPAN

Japan was hit by one of the largest earthquakes ever recorded. Although it has been five days since the tragic disaster the situation is not getting any better and the people of Japan need our help. Millions are without food, water, and power. We are praying for victims of this tragic earthquake and tsunami and they need our help now. It is estimated that over 10,000 people have lost their lives. We have been involved in helping these people now we would like to share ways for you to help too. It only takes a moment of your time and a little compassion.
