Pray for the millions of people reeling from this sudden disaster.
A 7.7-magnitude earthquake—and subsequent powerful aftershocks—rattled central Myanmar on Friday, causing destruction in Mandalay, the nation’s second-largest city. Damage was reported across Southeast Asia, including neighboring Thailand. More than 1,600 people in Myanmar are confirmed dead, with thousands more injured or missing. The death toll is expected to rise significantly as emergency teams search through the rubble. Buildings are in ruins, and hospitals are overwhelmed.
This quake is the strongest to hit the region in over a century.
Pray for the people of Myanmar as they suffer in the wake of this earthquake.
