Many of you may have heard about the 6.3 earthquake to rock central Italy early yesterday (Monday) morning. To this hour, about 180 people have been confirmed dead; over 1000 injured, and 50,000 homeless.Italy is a staunchly Roman Catholic country. So I was quite surprised to learn that a Pentecostal church (Assemblies of God) in L'Aquila was totally damaged through the earthquake. It is too early to tell if any of its members are among the missing/dead. There are still several towns and villages that cannot be reached by automobile and the recovery efforts are still in process.
If you can read German, here is the preliminary report from idea.
