Thomas Quenet has given us an update another update on Cuba:
“I also spoke last night to the Cuban Bishop, Bishop Ricardo Pereira. He confirmed that the devastation in the Santiago Province has been significant. The church has been distributing food, clothes and sacos (tarpaulins, but literally translated as ‘sacks’) to as many people as possible. The Church appreciates the response of the Methodist Church in Britain and the phone call. He said that on Sunday, at the centenary of his church, they had raised 3,000 Cuban convertible pesos (Cuban currency pegged to the US dollar) and the service had been attended by thousands, with the police peacefully managing to control the crowd”.
