Earthquake Update 2

It has been nearly three weeks since the big earthquake in China and yet it still controls life here. People are living in fear. They are afraid that another one will come and that this time it will be worse. I was walking home from fellowship a week ago when all of a sudden people came rushing outside. Across the street someone had thrown a chair out of a glass door to escape the building. I did not feel a thing but there had evidently been a tremor and people were very afraid.


Many people have set up tents outside because they are afraid to sleep in their own homes in case they would be trapped in it during another quake. These are tents set up right below my apartment building. (This was taken today) I counted 3o tents set up there the other day.
