Help Churches Respond After the Venezuela Earthquakes
Churches are already there. Together, we can help them serve.
Two powerful earthquakes struck near Venezuela’s north-central coast on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, causing extensive damage in and around the capital, Caracas. Buildings collapsed, families were displaced, and thousands of people are now facing the difficult road to recovery.
In the midst of this tragedy, local churches responded immediately.
For years, Send Relief and the International Mission Board have partnered with the National Baptist Convention of Venezuela (CNBV) to strengthen churches throughout Venezuela. Because those relationships were already in place, pastors and church members were able to begin serving their communities right away—checking on neighbors, distributing emergency food, helping provide essential supplies, and sharing the hope of Christ with those who have lost so much.
Recovery will take months, if not years, and many families need help rebuilding their lives. Your gift today will help provide food, medicine, blankets, shelter, and other critical assistance. You’ll also strengthen local churches as they bring practical help and the hope of the gospel to those affected by these devastating earthquakes.
When disaster strikes, compassionate ministry is more than meeting immediate needs. It is walking alongside communities as they begin to rebuild.
You can help today by giving generously.
Please pray for Venezuela.
- Pray for those who have been injured and for families searching for loved ones.
- Pray for protection over rescue workers as aftershocks continue.
- Pray for Venezuelan churches and believers as they serve their communities with compassion and the hope of Christ.
- Pray for wisdom for local leaders as they assess damage and coordinate relief efforts.
- Pray that many people would experience the love of Christ through the faithful presence of local churches.
Please note: Volunteer opportunities are not available for this response.
