Presbyterian World Service and Development began accepting donations for relief work in Japan days after an earthquake and tsunami struck the island’s coast.
As the Record went to press, PWS&D reported that its partners are assessing the humanitarian needs in afflicted areas.
The Presbyterian Church also called for prayers for those affected. In a prayer published online on March 11, the day of the disaster, the church held up the people of Japan, partner churches, PCC missionaries in Taiwan, the Japanese government and international church aid agencies.
