It's been six months since Hurricanes Maria and Irma devastated Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Because of your prayers and actions we continue to move forward debt relief and disaster aid for the islands. However, six months later we still need your prayers and action to address the humanitarian crisis on the islands. Today, many Puerto Ricans still don't have reliable access to food, clean water, and other necessities.
Please join us March 23rd - 25th and pray for the people of Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Please sign-up your religious community and dedicate one prayer or petition during your religious service as we continue to act for those suffering on the islands. You can sign-up using the form below or contact kate@jubileeusa.org or 503-936-7553.
It has now been six months since Hurricanes Maria and Irma devastated our neighbors in Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. In the midst of this continued crisis, we both grieve the devastation and loss of life that occurred, and recognize the ways in which you God are present even in these difficult times.
As we consider the many needs of the people of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, we pray for mercy, comfort, and relief for our brothers and sisters in Puerto Rico at this time. We ask for restoration for all of your people on the islands.
As people of faith, we will continue to outstretch our arms in support and ask for the help that is beyond our mere means. We pray for the hearts and minds of those in power, that they too might see the needs of your people, and view Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands with eyes of compassion. We are standing with Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.
