Earthquake Relief 2011: Japan

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear sisters and brothers in Christ,

On Friday an 8.9-magnitude earthquake caused severe damage and led to a tsunami that overwhelmed cities and farmland in Japan. Tsunami warnings have been raised around the Pacific Rim. ELCA Disaster Response is monitoring the situation and preparing this church's response, both internationally and domestically as needed.

All 22 ELCA missionaries in Japan have reported that they and their families are safe and well.

The ELCA and its predecessor church bodies have a long history in Japan, dating back to 1892. The Japan Evangelical Lutheran Church has a rich tradition of education and service to those who are in need, and we will continue to walk alongside our companions in ministry as they respond to the disaster.

Please continue to pray for those affected by this disaster.

Contributions can be made to ELCA International Disaster Response for the Pacific Earthquake and Tsunami Response. Your gifts will be used to assist those whose lives and livelihoods have been affected by this disaster in Japan and other affected islands.

Thank you for your gifts. Your prayers and partnership are needed.

Sincerely,

The Rev. Daniel Rift
Director, ELCA World Hunger and Disaster Appeal
