Tornado in Havana, Cuba
The message below is an update from Rt. Rev. Armando Rusindo about the tornado which hit Cuba on 1/28/19:
What has happened in Havana is truly very dramatic and painful.
The high level of destruction in their homes and goods for many Havana families and in public institutions and private businesses, the affectation of services such as electricity, transportation, telephony and others and, above all, the loss of three lives and the 172 injured, some probably in a critical state, has plunged that area of the capital of all Cubans into a bleak panorama. It was an experience never before lived in Cuba where the few tornadoes that have hit us have been of very low category and very little destructive power but this is estimated to have been a fourth or fifth category and had gusts of wind up to 300 kms. hour. We feel really sad about this situation, that heartrending to see the images on the television; I just led a time of prayer here in the Council of Churches for this situation and the Emergency Committee was activated.
I do not have information on whether there is a Moravian in that area who has suffered damage to your family or property, if I receive any information I send it immediately.
A hug and blessings.
Armando

1 Corinthians 12:12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honored, all rejoice together with it.
