Dozens from across Wichita joined together at the Unitarian Universalist Church in east Wichita for a candlelight vigil honoring those suffering in Haiti.
Reverend David Carter said, "When this news came to me, I thought what can we do?"
Carter decided he would open his church doors to the entire community. Facilitating an open house, he said would be a way for people to join in prayer, fellowship, and grief as well as unite in a mission to help those suffering in Haiti.
"This is an opportunity to see people come together, share and help," said Carter.
To donate to the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee, which is donating to the crisis in Haiti, you can visit their website: www.uusc.org
