As Haiti Prays With Its Voice... and Hands and Feet...

A catastrophic earthquake has struck Haiti, the most impoverished nation in the western hemisphere. Amid the rubble and chaos, those on the ground report hearing prayers:

"It's 8:44 p.m. and we're still getting aftershocks! Can hear people gathered in the distance singing prayers," wrote Richard Morse, a hotel manager at the Oloffson Hotel in the capital, Port-au-Prince. Throughout the night, "singing and praying intensified and then waned," Morse wrote.

Morse didn't hear helicopters or ambulances.

As the people of Haiti pray with their voice, and hands and feet, laboring to save those buried in the rubble, may the nations of the world be charged with doing the same.

"If the misery of the poor be caused not by the laws of nature, but by our institutions, great is our sin." - Charles Darwin
