Hi Everyone.

I also live in Minnesota. This is absolutely horrible. This is a main artery that runs through Minneapolis. There was a good thing - because of the work that was being done on the bridge, there was only 1 lane open. So, there would have been many more if all the lanes were open. It was almost eerie coming into work today. There were about 1/2 the amount of cars in the parking lot. I was told that news stations were asking for people to stay home today.

With this bridge out, it will be years before another one is built.

I have a similar story where a coworker would have had family members on that bridge when it collapsed. They happened to have a work radio in the car who notified this person to stop and not go any further on the highway.

Please pray for all of the people who are missing members of their families who could still be in the water. They are estimating 20-30 more cars that they haven't recovered yet. They know for sure that there are people in some of those cars.



Dear God, Please comfort all of the people who are missing their loved ones and hold all of them tight with your grace. Please give the survivors the courage and strength to go on. Please bless all of the people who have already passed and guide them into your arms for eternal peace. Amen.
