Venezuela Earthquake Appeal

Venezuela Earthquake Appeal

Tearfund is an agency that we support, as a benefice, that works with local churches to support areas of utmost need in our world.  If you would like to help in the Venezuelan relief effort following the two earthquakes, Tearfund have provided detailed prayer guidance, from their people on the ground as well as a facility to donate.

I was struck by these words from one of their Venezuelan partners: 
‘We are looking at a critical situation with collapsed residential buildings, severe structural damage, and thousands of families currently sleeping in the street due to the intense aftershocks.
Our teams have successfully made their way into La Guaira, and we're actively on the ground doing intensive field work, directly assisting the victims and deploying emergency aid where it is needed most.
As we continue our fieldwork through the debris and the panic, we urgently request your prayers, your help.’

Tear Fund is a member of the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC). The DEC have launched an appeal for funds. Please follow this link here if you would like to know more, how to provide prayer support, or to donate.
