In light of the recent Earthquake and Tsunami aftermath effecting Japan and the Pacific, we here at YWAMSF want to do everything to communicate that everyone here is fine, and will be.  Any aftermath set to effect the coast near San Francisco is said not to come any more than one mile inland.  The only effected areas are supposed to be the coastal highway, and water may come over the retaining wall no more than about one foot.  As we are six miles away from the coast, everyone at YWAMSF is fine.  We’ve instructed everyone to call home to let everyone know they are okay.  

But Japan is not.  As the earthquake and subsequent tsunami have effected vastly Japan, and has swept out through the Pacific, please pray for our Christian brothers and sisters, as well as all people effected by the effects of these events.  in Japan, the death count has already by confirmed at least 300, where 2000 people are effected, either being caught in the tsunami, or displaced because of safety reasons.  Please pray for everyone effected, the loved ones of those lost, and the safety of those still caught in compromising situations.  Thank you for all your love and support for those of us here, and around the world.  Below are some links regarding happenings in Japan that I’ve been able to gather today.  In limited time, I haven’t been able to get information on the effects on Hawaii or other Pacific Island, but search the web.  It’s good to be informed.  As followers of Christ, our prayers can move mountains.  Thank you all for being wonderful, beloved sons and daughters of God.
