Please offer up a prayer for the six trapped coal miners and those injured in todays disaster in Huntington Utah. They have been trapped for 11 days as of today. There was another disaster at the same mine involving the rescue miners this evening it seems there was a "Bump" {cavein} and as of this count nine more injured, possibly more, possibly one fatality.
thanks
Kerry
 
Re: Hunnington coal miners

Absolutely right, Kerry....I just heard one of the rescuers had died...brave men those, willing to die to save their brothers!

"Greater love hath no man but that he lay down his life for a friend."
 
Update:
Make that three rescuers, according to the local news.
A 1.3 and a 1.5 seismic activity registered at the University of Utah at the time of the Blow out. It appears that the walls and not the ceiling blew in from the pressure, spraying the miners with debris. Most assuridly brave men to risk thier lives for thier brothers.
Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers.
Kerry
