7.6 Magnitude Earthquake Hits Japan

A 7.6 magnitude earthquake struck Japan on New Year's Day, resulting in at least 57 fatalities and causing extensive destruction. The town of Suzu, located on Japan's noto peninsula, experienced a significant impact, with approximately 90% of homes believed to be destroyed. The earthquake also led to damaged roads, fires, and widespread power and water outages. While a major tsunami warning was initially issued, it was later downgraded and eventually canceled. Prayers are requested for both physical safety and for the compassion and generosity of Christ's followers in assisting the affected individuals.
