CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

I received the news from my dad just a few minutes ago.

A bridge over the Mississippi river has collapsed in Minnesota. It was under repairs and buckled. It's estimated that 50 to 60 cars are underwater. The amount of deaths are currently unknown. More information is coming as time passes.

I feel this would be a really good time for all of us to come together to pray for the families and victims of this disaster.

I saw this on TV just a while ago. It must be so scary up there.

*praying*

Yeah, I heard about this. It's really horrible; I can't imagine what it would have been like. I'll definitely be praying for the families.

This is really horrific. I've been watching the news for almost an hour. It's really terrible. We can only hope that the casualties are minimal.

How awful.

They'll be in my prayers...

I'm watching it now on FOX. So far, only four deaths and sixty wounded. There are twenty missing. I'll definitely be praying for them.

They did report that a school bus carrying children also fell. There were some wounded but they all survived. Thank God for that.

I actually heard that they stopped just in time - they didn't actually fall off the bridge. It was on the radio this morning.

Oh, good. I just heard that it fell.

The report on FOX came on again and what they had reported was that the bus had landed on the other side of the bridge and it stayed there. It did fall but not into the river. It just somehow landed safely. Either way, they're safe.

I've been watching CNN since about an hour after the collapse on and off...it's terrible...

79 wounded, 3/4 deaths CONFIRMED (I've also heard reports of 7 and 9 deaths) and many missing...it's crazy. God be with that area.

As I said on the Abhnations Forum earlier today it could have been worse,there were 20,000-25,000 at the Twins game and the management decided that it was best to keep the game going since all those additional people going home from the game would have made it that much harder for the rescue workers.
