The Mission Support Ministry of Centreville Presbyterian Church responded to the Haiti earthquake needs with a $2000 contribution to Samaritan’s Purse. We have enjoyed an active relationship with SP for several years and consider them an organization which most closely meets the MSM established criteria for support in emergency situations. For updates go to www.samaritanspurse.org
- Dennis Stuessi of CPC has extensive relief experience. He shares, "The Christian agencies in bold below have an existing relationship with CPC or have been confirmed as 'First Responders' with an active presence in Haiti. Each agency has credibility based on my personal experience from previous disaster response operations. These are organizations with accountability and I recommend each to all at CPC."
