In the community of Bella Vista, a region in the state of Aragua, Venezuela, we share this ray of hope<\/strong> amid so much darkness and the extreme circumstances we face every day, in a country where the people are very generous and empathetic.<\/p>\n\n

A group of laypeople from the Vedruna family, together with the sisters, carries out a small mission, which we do with love and dedication. Our beneficiaries are a group of people\u2014grandfathers and grandmothers\u2014in vulnerable situations. We strive to let the arms of Saint Joaquina embrace some of their needs<\/strong> by providing them with a hearty and varied breakfast and, above all, showing each one affection. <\/p>\n\n

On this occasion, we wrapped up a year-long mission (project), and we treated them to drinks, breakfast, and cake as a special gesture.<\/p>\n\n

Joyful and grateful, they expressed their feelings by offering blessings and giving thanks for all they had received.<\/p>\n\n

For our part, we give thanks to God for allowing us to be part of this great Vedruna charismatic family, living out the motto \u201cgenerous love, an inspiring mission.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

May the Holy Spirit bless and encourage all those people and organizations that make this possible.<\/p>\n\n

We all nurture that mustard seed so that it may grow each day, among the most vulnerable, at the Nuestra Se\u00f1ora del Valle School.<\/p>\n\n
