Please take a moment to watch this 3 minute video HERE . The husband of the HS principle at the boy's school shares about his trip on a CRASH advance team last week to survey one of the most affected areas. We recognize the broken up road shown in the video as the same road in front of the beach that we stay at each summer for a few weeks at OMF's cabin.
Here is a picture from our vacation time last summer near Sendai City. The cabins on the hills were a safe refuge from the tsunami that came flooding into the lower beach areas without warning. Several missionary families were stranded for several days eating stored canned food and drinking melted snow. The fish hatchery, beach hut and houses that you see off in the distance here have all been washed away. Our hearts are heavy as we think of our Christian Japanese friend who worked in a fish hatchery like this one along the coast. His name is still among the missing.
