LIMA, Peru (Aug. 16) — A powerful 7.9-magnitude earthquake shook Peru’s coast near the capital, killing at least 337 people and injuring more 827 others, the Civil Defense said early Thursday.<\/p>\n

Civil Defense Commander Aristides Mussio released the figures on Peru’s state television station, saying one person was killed in Lima and 336 in the region of Ica…\u00a0<\/p>\n

Deputy Health Minister Jose Calderon called the situation in Ica “dramatic.”<\/p>\n

There have been a lot of “natural” disasters lately, and my prayers are with those in Peru.\u00a0 COGs, such as LCG, have members in Peru.<\/em><\/p>\n

However, those in LCG, at least,\u00a0appear to be safe, as LCG reported:<\/em><\/p>\n

\n

Mario Hernandez <\/strong>sends the following report concerning the devastating two-minute earthquake that struck yesterday the nation of Peru<\/country-region>: \u201cOur brethren in \nPeru<\/place><\/country-region> are all safe. Thanks to God, none of them were injured. I was unsuccessful in communicating with anyone in Peru<\/country-region> last night, but this morning I spoke with Eden Hurtado, our host in \nLima<\/place><\/city>. Even though the earthquake was violent and prolonged, causing collective panic among the people, \nLima<\/place><\/city> was not greatly affected\u2014and we thank God for protecting the brethren.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It was nice to get the above report from LCG.<\/em><\/p>\n

Earthquakes, of course,\u00a0are predicted.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Jesus warned that “there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows” (Mark 13:8).<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
