Prayer vigils are taking place across the United States as another show of support for earthquake survivors and their families.
Members of the Solid Rock First Haitian Tabernacle of Grace church in Raleigh held one earlier tonight.
This mostly Haitian congregation wanted to offer hope to their friends and family suffering thousands of miles away.
They have been trying for days to get in touch with their relatives.
Every day they don't hear anything becomes more difficult to hold out hope.
The church will hold another vigil Sunday night.
Another vigil took place in Atlanta, Georgia.
The Nation on Its Knees Prayer Summit for Haiti featured ministers from across Georgia.
Church leaders say that prayer is one of the biggest resources people can turn to as a way to help the earthquake victims.
A special church service in New York on Friday supported the large Haitian community there.
Dozens of Haitian Americans gathered at the Holy Cross Church in Brooklyn to pray for the victims.
The only Haitian-born bishop in the United States led the service.
