PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad (CNS) — Despite COVID-19 restrictions and various challenges posed by continuous volcanic eruptions and ashfall on St. Vincent and the Grenadines and neighboring islands, dioceses in the West Indies have rallied to the aid of those affected by La Soufrière volcano.
“There is an immediate response with the things they need most,” said Archbishop Jason Gordon of the Archdiocese of Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, April 10. “Once we get that done, then we start working with them to consider the scale of the problem and what kind of response will be needed.”
