Haiti Elects A New President

Haiti is not only the poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere, but it is also home to a government that is considered to be deeply corrupt.

This is a significant moment in the history of a nation with a difficult political past. Will you join us in praying for a peaceful transition of Mr. Martelly to office and for his Presidency?
