On Monday 27 October, 2025, hurricane Melissa, described as the \u2018storm of the century\u2019,<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">ravaged the island of Jamaica, leaving persons dead and thousands of persons displaced and<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">homeless. Similar reports have emerged in the neighbouring countries of Haiti, Cuba, the<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">Dominican Republic and the Bahamas, and the possibility of such experiences being repeated<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">presents itself as Melissa continues on a trajectory towards Bermuda. The Caribbean is no<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">stranger to experiencing itself as vulnerable to the serious effects of climate change. At the same<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">time, the Caribbean also bears witness to a history of resilience, generosity, hospitality and<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">community spirit from its people in the aftermath of such threats. It is this spirit that the CTCT<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">appeals to at this time as we call on all our brothers and sisters to rally around those most<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">seriously affected through whatever means possible.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">The CTCT also calls attention to another serious threat posed to our Region &#8211; the escalation of<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">geopolitical tensions between Venezuela and the U.S.A., which has taken on a potentially<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">| Email: ctctsec1994@gmail.com | Facebook: @ctct1994<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">dangerous turn with consequent aggressive military presence and action by the U.S. and other<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">international countries in the Southern Caribbean.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">This has been followed by a breakdown in relations among CARICOM member states and also<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">among our Latin American neighbours, sowing seeds of division, confusion, and mistrust.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">The CTCT wishes to add its voice to the many others at this time urgently calling upon our<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">leaders, particularly those directly involved in this situation, for sound decision-making, good<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">relations and peace. The CTCT reiterates the call of CARICOM and Latin America, first made in<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">2014, for the Caribbean space to remain a \u2018zone of peace\u2019 \u2013 a space of peaceful geo-political<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">relations and non-militarised action, including the absence of naval bases used for war against<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">countries within the Region. The \u2018zone of peace\u2019 is meant to further recognize the sovereignty of<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">nation states of the Caribbean and Latin America, especially to foreign intervention.<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">The CTCT maintains that the ideals of peace and fraternal relating must never be eschewed for<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">political interests. Furthermore, the CTCT calls on both regional and local religious bodies,<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">through their leaders, to advocate vociferously for the protection of their peoples, particularly the<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">most vulnerable, to urge their faithful to embody the ideals of peace and good judgment, and to<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">call on leaders to carefully guard against threats to peace and stability within the region. Lastly,<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">the CTCT calls on all people of faith and goodwill to entrust the cause of the Caribbean to divine<\/span><br \/><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #000000;\">guidance and protection, believing that the \u2018Lord hears the cry of the poor\u2019.

The CTCT began to take its shape under the leadership of three Catholic clergy, Father Michel de Verteuil CSP, Archbishop Emeritus Joseph Harris CSP, and Monsignor Patrick \u2018PABA\u2019 Anthony. These three men sought to foster a space where people from all walks of life could gather and ask questions about their faith in relation to their everyday experience. At this point of history, the CTCT aims to focus on ecumenism, inter-religious dialogue, and a deepening of Caribbean theology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Services&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;858.5px&#8221; overflow-x=&#8221;hidden&#8221; overflow-y=&#8221;hidden&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;-46px||-77px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;62px||96px|||&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221; collapsed=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;43px&#8221; header_font=&#8221;|800|||||||&#8221; header_font_size=&#8221;58px&#8221; header_6_font_size=&#8221;35px&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#0C71C3&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;14px||9px||false|false&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;flip&#8221; text_text_shadow_style=&#8221;preset5&#8243; header_6_text_shadow_style=&#8221;preset1&#8243; border_radii=&#8221;off||||&#8221; inline_fonts=&#8221;Alfa Slab One&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Alfa Slab One'; font-weight: normal; color: #ffffff;\">Our Founders<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; min_height=&#8221;526.4px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/ctctoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Michel-de-Verteul.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Michel de Verteul&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;115%&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||20px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||28px|||&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; inline_fonts=&#8221;Aleo&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-family: Aleo;\"><strong>Fr.
