Update from our National Council(posted: Jul 4, 2020)COVID-19 UPDATE
I hope this letter finds you well and healthy.
It is my honour and privilege to serve with you during this time of pandemic, in a world struggling with the effects of COVID-19. What a blessing to see how Vincentians are finding innovative ways to continue helping, while protecting their health and the health of the persons and families we serve. After many weeks of confinement, with phases of reopening underway across the county, and with the summer weather, it is easy to relax the precautionary measures used to assist people in need. We must continue applying public health and government authorities’ recommendations to protect those in need and Vincentians. For any person-to-person contact, it is always preferable to err on the side of caution and ensure safety for everyone, and to not encourage any volunteers into action if they feel unsafe or have prior health conditions that could put them at risk. Prevention and precaution are in order in this constantly changing situation, even if it may appear to be stabilizing. It is important to listen to the advice of public health experts:
May God answer all your prayers and bring to fruition all your works, hopes and aspirations. Thank you for your support.
