Arrow Something I'd like to share with Everyone!

My Cousin Thomas Hurst (a world class photographer) has just returned from Haiti with an organization called, "Churches Helping Chruches," to help with the rebuild and support of the country devastated by the earthquakes. Tom has been to every corner of the world to photograph stuggling countries and trying times and situations. Many of his trips have been freelance and simply a passon of his to bring the true reality of these global issues to our eyes. I would like to share my cousin's recent journey with you as his work and dedication is simply amazing.

Some of the images are very graphic in nature and may be disturbing to some. Please view at your own discretion.

The stills in this video are taken by my cousin Thomas Hurst.

That is awesome. May the Lord's angels continue to go before, behind, on the right hand and on the left, and continue protecting his travels.

Weeping may endure for the night, but joy cometh in the morning.

What an awesome testimony to the Lord from the guy in the video.
