Hey all

We had an explosion here in one of the mines on the west coast, as to date 29 miners are missing.

They are unable to send rescuers into the mine after four days, due to high gas levels and the high possibility of triggering more explosions.

Prayers coveted, that something moves in the next few hours, because the longer the miners are down there the more likely it will become a recovery than a rescue.

From what I've been reading, the chances are very slim anyone survived, however, you never know.

I'll also encourage prayers for the families of the miners and especially for the safety of the resuce workers who have to contend with the possibility of causing new explosions, risking their own lives, during the rescue attempts.

Thanks T.
