Pray As Chile's Earthquake Circumstance Gets Worse

Inside the earthquake stricken Chile, hundreds of individuals have already been confirmed dead with two million men, women and children suffering from the disaster as well. Numerous areas of the disaster region continue to be inaccessible while a total snapshot of this devastation is only starting to become apparent. Chile's President Michelle Bachelet has made a plea for global assistance.

Rapid response teams are coordinating the supply of essential medicines as well as other health-related supplies to assist earthquake survivors. Numerous relief efforts are generally centered on providing medical aid which includes antibiotics, infection management products as well as surgical equipment. Regarding healthcare, one of the most severe difficulties took place in southern Chile, in which six hospitals collapsed as well as two others that have been damaged seriously and are not able to function.

To accelerate aid to survivors, organizations are also working together with associates within the region, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Colombia and Argentina, to organize their response. Medications, healthcare supplies along with other humanitarian aid are anticipated to be transported to local hospitals, clinics and other health care providers within the approaching days.

Please pray for the people who are suffering or who have lost loved ones in Chile.  Pray for the salvation of many and that the Lord would move in a mighty way among the Chilean people.
