They’re seeking dry ground. Let’s help them find hope.
The people of Pakistan have suffered numerous natural and human-caused disasters over the past several years. Presbyterians have been in ministry there since before the nation of Pakistan was formed. We stand with them today in their time of need. The recent floods have brought record-breaking destruction to the country, with more than 1,400 people dead and more than 1.5 million displaced. You can make a difference in bringing God’s healing to a nation torn by devastation.
The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is responding through Presbyterian Disaster Assistance (PDA) and working with our ecumenical partners to help meet emergency needs – providing food packages, shelter material, and non-food essentials. Emergency health services are also being provided.
How Can We Respond?
Give – Give to support the relief and recovery efforts through PDA. Individuals may give through their local Presbyterian congregation, on the secure PC(USA) Web site or by sending their check to:
Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)
P.O. Box 643700
Pittsburgh, PA 15264-3700
Please include the special designated giving account DR000038 - Pakistan.
Make a donation by calling 1-800-728-7228
Act - Congregations and individuals can put together hygiene kits and baby kits to be distributed through Church World Service.
Pray - Join with others in lifting up the people of Pakistan and those seeking to provide aid in this critical time. As the eyes of the world turn to Pakistan, let us join our hearts in prayer:
God of compassion, please watch over the people of Pakistan, and weave out of these terrible events wonders of goodness and grace. Surround those who have been affected by tragedy with a sense of your present love, and hold them in faith. Though they are lost in grief, may they find you and be comforted; guide us as a church to find ways of providing assistance that heals and gives hope. Help us to remember that when one of your children suffers we all suffer. Through Jesus Christ who was dead, but lives and rules this world with you. Amen.

Celebrating our life as a community of faith
Partnership:
Our visit to the Congo in July 2006 was an opportunity to affirm our partnership with brothers and sisters with whom we have covenanted to undertake new mission work, and share our common witness to the love of Jesus Christ for all the world. The most powerful expression of this friendship was the thrilling experience of worshipping together in singing, praying, dancing, breaking bread and meeting members of the many churches (parishes) in Kananga Presbytery. Our visit reminded the struggling congregation of Kananga that we have not forgotten their plight. We stand with them in their witness and together we will pray for a more peaceable kingdom on this earth.
