VENEZUELAN AMBASSADOR to Barbados, José Gonzales Fébres, and his fellow countrymen living in Barbados gathered at St Patrick’s Roman Catholic Cathedral yesterday to pray for Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez, who arrived in Cuba last Friday to undergo surgery to remove a possibly cancerous tumour.
Fébres said the service was organized to pray for the good outcome of his president’s surgery, which he said was scheduled to take place between yesterday and today.
He said the Venezuelan community in Barbados wanted to contribute to the fight and survival of Chavez by putting their prayers together, in addition to the president’s spirit of fighting and goodwill.
