Kerang Train Crash Disaster

We want to take some time out to pray for
  • the victims, their families and friends,
  • the truck driver who has been charged for culpable driving,
  • the train driver who is on trauma leave,
  • the rescuers who witnessed the carnage
  • and all who came into contact with the aftermath of last week's train crash in regional Victoria.

In all, 11 people were killed in what was described as the worst rail disaster in Victoria's history. Among them were a 46 y.o. nurse and her 2 young daughters. They were on their way home after visiting the girls' grandma to celebrate her birthday. The husband/father is reported to be still in shock at the loss of his entire family.

May the grace and comfort of the Lord be with all who weep and mourn.
