As Holy Week began in Caracas, a prayer gathering took place with acting President of Venezuela Delcy Rodríguez and leaders of evangelical churches in attendance. At the event, held at the Poliedro in the capital, Rodríguez called on citizens to unite in prayer for the country's peace, calm, and happiness, invoking the example of Jesus Christ. She also asked for prayers for President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores, and urged support for state programs of democratic coexistence and amnesty aimed at reconciliation and healing society from hatred and intolerance.
During the ceremony Delcy Rodríguez was honored by the religious community as the first woman in the republic's history to hold the country's highest state office. She expressed hope that Venezuela would be freed from international sanctions, allowing the economy to recover, benefits to reach those most in need, and prayed for improved relations with the United States based on mutual respect and cooperation. The event was attended by government members, local religious representatives, and international leaders, including pastors from the United States and Colombia.
