The Dasa committee Website
The purpose of this website is to share the information reported to the 49th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in America and to provide a channel to communicate with members of the committee. At that Assembly, the DASA committee report was received and the committee was dismissed with thanks. Any information on this website that was not presented to the 49th General Assembly is solely the opinion of the author and not endorsed by the PCA. This is a privately funded website administered by members of the committee. It is not under the authority or control of the Stated Clerk of the General Assembly of the PCA or the Administrative Committee.
Thanks to the Langston Family Foundation

Hope and Help for Healing
The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know your name put their trust in you for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you. [Psalm 9:9-10 (ESV)]
The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. [Psalm 103:6 (ESV)]
O LORD, you hear the desire of the afflicted; you will strengthen their heart; you will incline your ear to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, so that man who is of the earth may strike terror no more. [Psalm 10:17-18 (ESV)]
“Thus says the LORD of hosts, Render true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another, do not oppress the widow, the fatherless, the sojourner, or the poor, and let none of you devise evil against another in your heart.” [Zechariah 7:9-10 (ESV)]
But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. (2 Cor. 4:7–10)
