Several towns had been wiped out in the earthquake with at least 40,000 lives lost. The casualty numbers continue to escalate. Besides praying for these victims, we hope to do more. We will be working closely with the medical teams that will be sent out from Missions Medical Clinic headed by an associate of SCCC.
