When the song of the angels is stilled,
When the star in the sky is gone,
When the kings and princes are home,
When the shepherds are back with their flock,
The work of Christmas begins:
- To find the lost,
- To heal the broken,
- To feed the hungry,
- To release the prisoner,
- To rebuild the nations,
- To bring peace among all,
- To make music in the heart.

Haiti Earthquake Relief Update
Thank you for your generosity in giving over $6,000 (as of 2/2) to the earthquake victims in Haiti. All the money will go to our organization in Haiti, Church World Services. They have been on the ground in Haiti since the beginning, because they were already there working on our behalf. Your missionaries are putting every cent that you contribute into food, medicines and other relief supplies. They are not handed out through government agencies, but through our own relief workers. This offering is open ended and as you feel moved, please continue to contribute, because the need will be ongoing for some time. Thank you for your generosity.
How You Can Help:
1. Pray for the people of Haiti, their leaders and emergency and humanitarian aid workers.
2. Please help the people of Haiti by sending gifts payable to First Congregational Church of Branford marked for "Haiti Earthquake Relief."
