Pray For Nepal



Bruce Jenner wants to be a woman, there’s riots in Baltimore, oh and hey there’s the NBA playoffs. That’s pretty much what most people in the US know what’s going on. Some little clip about the horrific tragedies that happen around the world are just a blip in the radar of the average Joe. Well if you aren’t aware around 4 p.m. on April 26, 2015, a 7.8 earthquake rocked the landlocked country of Nepal. The epicenter of the massive quake was about 50 miles north of Kathmandu. Following the initial quake there were several aftershocks, one of which hit the Richter scale at 6.7. Currently the death toll is above 4600, more than 9000 are injured, and the rescue attempts are far from over. Take a moment for the tragedies of humanity and feel the pain of the people who are currently going through one of the most catastrophic disasters in recent history. For perspective, this quake was reported to be 22 times stronger than the infamous quake that rocked Haiti in 2006. Millions of people have been effected and mourning their losses by something so unpredictable and heart wrenching. So while we are sitting here enjoying all of our blessings and getting ready to watch the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight there are millions of people on the other side of the world who are in dire need of our help. Feel compassion for our people, all of our HUMAN people, and stop for a second to feel the pain of our brethren.
