Our hearts, Minds and souls are crying out to God right now for the miners and their families and the community of the mining town in West Virginia. It is such a tight knit group of people the work, worship and love one another, it is really a different way of life than many experience. Educate yourself with the wonderful resources out there. Please wait until these families all know the condition and have their loved ones accounted for, before we start talking about all the "investigational stuff, failures of company policies to perform the required changes from other mining accidents. This mine has not had a major accident and is not the mine that many of the reports sited, although related and definitely necessary to deal with, this is not the time. Right now we need to be focusing on the people that risk their life, sacrafice for our energy and heat production. If you were not aware the majority of the United States electricity is produced from COAL!
Facebook has a wonderful group with pictures, videos, links and a great outpouring for the families, PRAY FOR THE COAL MINERS IN RALEIGH CO. WV here is a link, but I think you have to join facebook to view it, it is free and you can have extreme security settings, http://www.facebook.com/dot.wiggins.92?v=feed&story_fbid=112556202103874#!/group.php?gid=112466398779055&ref=mf
ABC News and Good Morning America seem to have the most coverage and updated information so search their websites.
Support this video that talks about West Virginia as a productive and carrying community, Mining is a large part of the economy, but the spirit of West Virginia is really the "gem". Notice the Young people and their work, the lack of the extremely overrated stuff and the celebration of the "good stuff". Hardwork, God, Family and Friends working together to be a community.
