WV coal miners
« on: April 06, 2010, 12:19:00 PM »
I know this isn't the proper place for this post BUT, the pow-wow will lend more exposure for this tragic situation. these coal miners and their families here in Raleigh County, WV need all the prayers we can send. 25 confirmed dead, 2 hospitalized and 4 still missing. I am personal friends with some of these men and attend Church with a father and son that were in that mine yesterday.

thank you

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, with bible in hand and loudly proclaim...WOW...What a Ride!!!

Prayers from me.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Mining still has to be one of the most dangerous jobs around, regardless of safety advances.

Prayers for all involved, that the missing may be found well and that all who've lost so heavily find comfort in God's Grace
The words "Child" and "terminal illness" should never share the same sentence! Those who care-do, others question!
