The Diocese of Maramureș offered food and 800 pairs of shoes last week for the victims of the torrential downpours in Satu Mare county in northern Romania. The eparchy will build four houses for the most affected families.
Archimandrite Casian Filip of the diocese’s social-philanthropic department met with clergy and local authorities on Monday to decide what kind of support to offer the victims.
Criteria were established for selecting the most affected families and determining what kind of help each family needs.
The diocese will build four houses in Hurezu Mare and Rătești and it will also provide construction materials for victims in another town. Help will be offered as soon as the social inquiry report is finalized.
The diocese has provided food for flood victims in Rătești and Giungi, and it will offer more food and necessity items for other villages as well.
