In response to Hurricane Maria’s devastating impact on Puerto Rico, the EPC has launched an emergency relief fund to help with recovery efforts. The EPC’s Presbytery of Florida and the Caribbean has three churches in Puerto Rico.
“Here we go again, following hurricanes Harvey and Irma,” said Jeff Jeremiah, EPC Stated Clerk. “But the reality is that the need in Puerto Rico is perhaps greater than we can imagine. The entire island is without electricity, and reports coming out indicate catastrophic damage. Thankfully, we heard from Juan Rivera, our pastor in Bayamón, and he said he is safe but reported ‘great destruction’ in the San Juan area where he lives. The recovery in Puerto Rico is likely to be a long one with many opportunities for ministry and witness.”
