PROJECTS FOR HaitiIn the wake of the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on Tues. Jan. 12, we as members of the Family of Holy Cross unite in prayer for the safety of all. This earthquake has had a ripple effect on communities across the globe. The Sisters of Holy Cross have 47 Sisters in Haiti, four of whom are from the United States: Sr. Aline Antil, Diane Villeneuve, Doreen Cloutier from New Bedford, Mass., and Sally Anne Howe from St. Albans, Vt. We are happy to say that all our sisters are safe, though surrounded by much sorrow and turmoil. At this time, what is most important are our prayers and compassion for all who are suffering. It is prayer that will inspire and motivate us to help the victims of this earthquake as best as we can. The Sisters of Holy Cross have two projects in motion for Haiti: 1 - Collecting funds: to assist the people of Haiti. 100%of all monies collected will go directly to our Sisters whose yard is now home to 300 displaced people.
