Venezuela is hurting: Pray with us!

After the earthquake, the church in Venezuela is trying to be salt and light even as Christians are impacted. 

Last Wednesday, Venezuela was impacted by devastating earthquakes.  

Thousands are dead, missing or injured. Infrastructure is destroyed, humanitarian aid is difficult to deliver.  

And the church is in the middle of it. 

Before the earthquake, the local church faced restrictions, pressure from the government and gangs, and discrimination.  

Now with their homes destroyed, they are still trying to be salt and light in their communities.  

A local Open Doors partner tells us that, despite the incredible pressure and trauma, the local church is standing strong: “Even so, they remain steadfast, accompanying people and bringing calm and hope in the midst of fear and instability.”  

Will you join me as we pray for our brothers and sisters in Venezuela?  

Pray not only for their needs and loss, but for the church to seize this opportunity to be a light to those around them.  

As we’ve seen around the world, God can work even in the darkest situations. In their hour of need, will you raise up your brothers and sisters? 

In Christ,

Ryan Brown

CEO, Open Doors US
