10-034-JB

CHICAGO (ELCA) -- The Haitian people are "living with hope," reported
Louis Dorvilier, a member of the churchwide staff of the Evangelical
Lutheran Church in America (ELCA).  He said despite many difficulties for
survivors of the Jan. 12 earthquake, Haitians living in temporary shelters
can be heard singing and worshipping -- similar to eyewitness reports of
other ELCA members in Haiti in the days after the disaster.
