Breaking News: Earthquake in Chile



This morning at 3:34 am, local time, a massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck the country of Chile 200 miles southwest of Santiago.  With such a magnitude, it will rank as one of the top 10 most powerful earthquakes ever.  The earthquake was so strong that reports suggest that it was felt as far away as Japan and Argentina.  It also is said to have been 1,000 times stronger than the earthquake that occurred last month in Haiti.  The death toll thus far is being reported as 122 and rising.  Unfortunately, with this earthquake  came a tsunami warning.  It's not only been issued for Chile, but for Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Antarctica, and Hawaii.  Facts are still developing being that the eartthquake just occurred.  Please keep these people in your prayers.


Until next time...keep the forward movement....
