Kanan Kitani, a Japanese participant in the 2010 Basic Ecumenical Course (BEC) of the National Council of Churches in the Philippines (NCCP) posted this in her facebook wall:
"The death toll after the earthquake and tsunami is more than 900, with about 700 others reported missing, and some 210,000 people had been evacuated in north-eastern Japan...Please do continue praying for the sufferers in Japan."
She added "The situation in Japan is horrifying. We are now highly cautious about the leak of radioactive cesium from nuclear power plant."
As I write this, there were reports of an explosion in the Fukushima nuclear power plant from the Japanese media and several people appear to have been injured.
I am appealing for prayers as this new development compounds the suffering of the people already in shock from the effects of the earthquake and tsunami.
