07-14-26 – Bishop Evelio asks You to Support Venezuela Disaster Relief

Two powerful earthquakes struck about 100 miles west of Caracas on Wednesday night, causing widespread destruction across parts of Venezuela.

Buildings collapsed, homes and essential infrastructure were damaged, and thousands of people have been left without safe shelter. Even as the full extent of the damage is still emerging, Catholic parishes have opened their doors to shelter displaced families and provide emergency assistance.

 

Bishop Evelio Menjivar is asking the faithful of our diocese to lift up the victims in prayer and support the relief efforts if you are able by clicking the link below.

All funds will go to Catholic Relief Services. CRS is working through Caritas Venezuela and the local Church to quickly deliver emergency shelter, food, safe water, medical care and other critical relief to those affected. Please prayerfully consider making a donation to support our brothers and sisters in need.
