Many images of earthquake damage in Haiti show the utter devastation people are experiencing in their lives and communities. We received several photos of the church and school in Petionville after the earthquake. These "before and after" photos illustrate the scope of the damage to the church and school in Petionville.
The Church Before the Earthquake
After
The entire lower level has been crushed.
The School Before the Earthquake

The balcony on the right side of the photo gives a consistent reference point between the two photos.
These photos clearly show how much work is ahead as the people in Haiti begin to rebuild their lives, homes, schools and communities. As of January 24, your generous donations to the Oblation Fund totaled more than $185,000. All contributions to the Oblation Fund through February 7 will go directly to our church members and their communities in Haiti. Donate now at www.CofChrist.org/give.
