Heart for Haiti - Music to Move the Soul

Hi everyone. It's Tuesday evening and I just came from church where I listened to the worship band practicing the song, HELP IS ON THE WAY. They make a pastor proud (only in the best spiritual way)! And what a great song. You can hear it this weekend at the Heart for Haiti concert.

Psalm 20 contains these words:
May the Lord answer you when you are in distress; may He send you help from the sanctuary.

What a great psalm to go with the concert as more than a hundred musicians and singers will come together in the sanctuary of MPC to ensure that, for the Haitian people, HELP IS ON THE WAY.

The people of Haiti have called upon the name of the Lord and for them HELP IS ON THE WAY. The music in the sanctuary will hopefully move your soul and then move your hand to write a check or reach for your wallet... a promissory note even... whatever it takes.... ‘cause this money will be an expression of our hearts for these folks in distress. It will be used for the rebuilding of this tiny nation - one house, one life at a time.

I am so grateful for all the people who have worked so hard in Christ's name to bring this event to pass... those who dreamed of it and those who made that dream a reality. HELP REALLY IS ON THE WAY... and it comes from God's own sanctuary, not the Mattituck Church, but from the actual heart of God. He put this music on everyone’s heart and now it's time to share it.

I hope all of you who are anywhere near here can come this weekend (see the church website for details)... and if you are not from around these parts please pray for all the musicians and for the people of Haiti. And remember - a check can easily be sent in the mail....make it out to MPC, mark it “Heart for Haiti” and mail it to PO Box 1411, Mattituck NY 11952.
Yours in Christ,
George
