collective prayer

With the heartbreaking news from Haiti this week, I thought I'd invite the sisterhood to join me on a collective prayer.

Please post your images of candles, flowers, offerings and good wishes. I really believe in the power of community prayer and I hope that together, our intentions can bring some hope and relief to those who are displaced, hurt, experiencing fear, thirst and loss... 

Let's join forces and use our Photography to send love to the people of Haiti today.

I agree - our hearts, prayers, and resources should be sent to Haiti right now. It is quite devastating. Beautiful thoughts - thank you.
