Two Miners Missing

While Kilo and I continue to remain in prayer for all those affected by the senseless killing at Virginia Tech we are also keeping prayers going for two missing coal miners believed buried beneath 75 feet of rock and dirt from a collapsed wall of an open pit mine in the Western Maryland mountains, near Barton. There are two unaccounted for miners believed to be buried along with a shovel and a bulldozer under of the debris of the highwall which was upwards of 75 feet tall. At this point they are looking at this as a rescue effort and not a recovery job. This means that there is still hope and so we hope.
