Our brothers and sisters in Peru have suffered from the consequences of the floods that have hit the country, though not in a devastating way, as the Commissar, Fr Alfredo Amesti ocd reports.
The most affected areas are in the north of the country, where the monastery of Trujillo and the convents of Truhillo and Piura are situated, which suffered slight floods and water infiltration.
In the south, the convent of St Vincent of Cañete, thanks be to God, narrowly missed an avalanche of mud and stones (huaico en quechua, in the native tongue), which passed nearby.
The communities of Lima suffered only from cuts in water and electricity. The Commissar thanks all those who are praying that the situation gets better and those people within the country who are mobilizing to help those most affected.
