Dear Haiti

[rhia]

Seemingly without warning, Haiti was struck today with a 7.0 earthquake.
Their government buildings are destroyed.
Many other buildings are destroyed.
The death toll/ injury count is unknown.
Haiti is in deep trouble right now.

The earthquake appears to have originated from only 10km under the earths surface. This is very shallow for an earthquake, and has caused devastating damages.

If you have family or friends there, we would like to send you comfort and well wishes while you wait for news.
If you're the praying sort, please take a moment today to reflect upon what has happened and those affected.

This is a terrible tragedy that will not be forgotten.



The following pics were posted on TwitPic by a professional photographer.




There are many more of course now circulating the internet. I will stop here however and ask if anyone does contribute to please not post any pics of deceased people or animals out of respect for them.

To all the Haitians out there, at home and abroad;
May you find your loved ones alive and well
We wish you peace
