On June 24, two powerful earthquakes struck parts of Venezuela, leaving thousands dead and tens of thousands displaced from their homes. In response to this humanitarian tragedy, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) immediately began providing financial assistance through its disaster relief fund, which has accumulated resources from prior disaster collections that were not fully utilized. These funds are being directed to support the relief efforts of Catholic Relief Services, whose personnel are already serving in the affected areas. Because assistance is already being provided through the USCCB’s disaster relief fund, a special collection for Venezuela will NOT be taken up at this time. However, those who wish to support the ongoing relief and recovery efforts are encouraged to make a donation directly to Catholic Relief Services (CRS) through their website. Flyers with a QR code can be found in the narthex.
Our weekly announcements will NOT include ALL the details, so please check the bulletin for more info and updates.
