Dear Brothers and Sisters, As you may have heard on the news, the people of Venezuelan are suffering. They lack food, medicines and other supplies. The cost of living has skyrocketed to over 1500%. Many have left the country, hoping to find a way to support themselves. Those who are left behind struggle daily to find the means to feed and care for their families. The corrupt government is making the situation impossible. Please read the attached letter sent to us from our dear sister, Chelito, the CIOFS Vice Minister, who lives in Venezuela. She and the members of their local Fraternity in Venezuela are trying to find every way possible to make certain that the children are fed and to provide medicines for the hundreds of people who go to the church for help. The list of medicines which are most needed are listed below. Please consider helping in whatever way you can.. Below is the address where you can send funds and another address where you can send medical supplies. Let’s give our brothers and sisters of Venezuela one more day of hope, one more day of relief.
