Prayer Alert for Japan, West Coast of US, Central & South America – following Earthquakes in Japan

On 11 March 2011, a devastating 8.9 earthquake hit Japan, the 5th largest in history. At this time, tsunamis are still reaching Hawaii, and are about to hit the West Coast of the U.S., and will also hit Central and South America. At this time, we have no idea how severe those waves will be.

MCC is assessing need in the areas impacted through communications with MCC members and friends in the area.  We will update this information with additional courses of action and support, if/when they arise.  In the meantime, please offer your prayers!  Click Here for more information.

Update from Christchurch New Zealand – 9 March 2011

There is also a house by house search spreading through the suburbs which will take many days as homes have collapsed and it is unsure how many people may lie within them. Read more!
