Description
Photo was taken in CaibareĆn, a small coastal town in Cuba's Villa Clara province, on September 10, 2017, the day after Hurricane Irma hit Cuba. MCC is working with the Brethren in Christ (BIC) Church to assist congregations in Las Tunas and Villa Clara provinces. Projects will focus on the repair of houses and supply of emergency food. MCC is also working with local organization, Christian Centre for Reflection and Dialogue, in Matanzas province to provide emergency food and shelter, along with support for small-scale farmers in the region. Bonnie Klassen, MCC Area Director for South America and Mexico, says after Hurricane Matthew in 2016, BIC churches set up emergency brigades that could respond quickly after a disaster.
