"Sharing Stories that Inspiring Giving" is the most exciting conference you’ll go to all year! This conference is the one place where you go to share ideas, get help, be mentored, be inspired and learn about current trends in development and fundraising. You will meet nationally acclaimed speaker Jo Farrell whose dynamic presentation will teach you how, and change how you tell your story. The CCMA Development Institute is your professional organization; this is your chance to join colleagues from across the country whether you are completely new to campus ministry or an experienced veteran, you will leave with the tools to take your ministry to the next level. Registration is $325 (see brochure for discounts when you bring more than one person from your ministry), and includes most meals and Institute materials.

Haiti Needs Your Help!
Catholic Relief Services shares the following: A powerful 7.0-magnitude earthquake rocked Haiti just before 5 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on Tuesday, January 12. The epicenter of the quake was 10 miles southwest of the impoverished nation’s capital, Port-au-Prince, which has more than 2 million inhabitants. Catholic Relief Services has permanent offices and ongoing projects in Haiti, which is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Eighty percent of Haitians are Catholic. Right now we are quickly mobilizing our pre-positioned emergency relief supplies including: kitchen kits, hygiene kits, mosquito nets, bedding, water containers and other lifesaving assistance. CRS has made an initial commitment of $5 million to help with immediate needs. Please support CRS in their efforts to rush relief to the earthquake victims in Haiti. Your help is urgently needed. Please donate now. To donate to via cell phone text, please text RELIEF to 30644 and follow the instructions. You may also click on the title above to be taken to CRS's donation page. Thank you for your continued prayers and support.
