Ongoing Urgent Prayer Requests: Earthquake in Haiti Affecting Venezuela Church In Caracas and Miranda, Venezuela, there are four Haitian Nazarene churches with a membership of approximately 400 persons that form their own district. When the Haitians arrived in Venezuela years ago they brought the Church of the Nazarene with them and now work in the cities. Some lost family members in the January 12 earthquake. The district superintendent believes that number will increase. Pray for the churches in Venezuela and their pastors as they minister to those who have lost loved ones: •Antimano Church and Pastor Stny Vertus •Catia Church and Pastor Edrean Occeas •La Vega Church and Pastor Yjuin Edmon •Cartanal Church and Pastor Gilbert Joseph
Chile Earthquake Please continue to pray for the people affected by the earthquake in Chile. The South America Region offers these specific requests: •Pray that the borders will be opened for humanitarian aid and that the aid can be delivered to people in need. •Pray for the necessary financial support to be received. •Pray for the health of thousands of Chileans who are exposed to the elements.
