Title: New Zealand in shock
Post by: Aunty on February 23, 2011, 04:05:00 AM
The biggest city in the South Island of New Zealand Christchurch was stuck by a 6.3 Earthquake 75 souls dead over 300 missing our country is in shock. some of my cousins were in Christchurch when the Earthquake hit thank God that they are safe and well. Although many families are not as lucky. Please spare a passing thought for the Earthquake victims and there families. Even in this terrible time Christchurch will rebuild we as a country will rebuild and the lives lost will not be forgotten.

I pulled jeffs proflie he lives in Auckland but at 4pm our time they are going to start releasing names that are missing and those that have passed away. will keep you informed if jeff is among them as far as i am aware all the bowhunters that i have wrung none seem to think that any bowhunters are hurt. Im not much of a holy man but at times like these it sure makes you wonder. Hug your family tonight as life is precious in a blink of an eye it all can change.

With the devastation they're showing, folks, I'd bet luxuries like internet and even phone might not be available for folks to check in.

Prayers for those who are lost and those who've lost everything! Natural disasters really bring home the point how puny we really are with all our big technology... we're but dust in Mother Earth's hands when it comes down to it.

Lord, be with those in need and comfort those who've lost. Thank you for our own protection and fortune of health and peace. Amen

despite the fact that Aussies and Kiwis are are two different countries and take the piss out of each other every chance we get, we have a special bond and when such a tragedy occurs we feel like it happening to our own!
My heart goes out to all those effected and for the families who have lost loved ones.
I am proud our country jumped straight in and is helping out our kiwi brothers.
