Subscribe to the Best Magazine Out There & Half Goes to Haiti!

relevant-magazine-haiti

My favorite magazine, RELEVANT, is currently giving away half of every dollar for every new subscription to World Vision’s emergency relief efforts in Haiti.  When you subscribe to RELEVANT, “you’ll stay connected to what God is doing in our generation. By subscribing right now, you’ll tangibly help those in need.”

The yearly subscription is $15 and is worth it on its own, but now that half of that goes to Haiti, it is an offer you can’t pass up on.  It’s also a great gift idea for anyone who is interested in some incredible writing on current issues, exploring how we as Christians can play a role in shaping God’s story.

Relevant Magazine: God, Life, Progressive Culture.

Also, if you would like to buy an album, iTunes released “Hope For Haiti” for $7.99, of which 100% of the proceeds go towards Haiti relief.  Jay-Z, DMB, Stevie Wonder, and Beyonce have nice performances on the CD, despite it being a more b-ranking album in my opinion.  Either way, even if it’s not the best of songs, it still goes towards rebuilding.

Haiti you are still in our prayers.

“We’re not gonna leave you stranded”

Haiti Response

Quick post, because I can’t let this just slip by before falling asleep tonight:

Amazing/Gutwrenching photos of Haiti.

Trustworthy organization to give help through.

Local response here in Rochester – Parkminster (another church in Chili) is hosting a silent auction for an orphanage they support in Haiti that was completely destroyed this Sat night at 7pm. The friend I talked to said his father runs the orphanage and had to literally drive over dead bodies to get back home. Unreal. Details here: http://www.parkminster.com/

One of my college best friends singing a song in response to the situation.

Pat Robertson drives me completely crazy. All we can pray for is that Pat decides to retire soon.

Then I learned the actual history of Haiti here and here and on CNN.

This is what Pat should have said.

Donald Miller then put Pat’s comments into perspective for me and pointed towards a Christ-like response.

My prayers are with the people of that country.
