Friends and Family,
I wanted you to know that I am safe and sound along with the rest of my team after the earthquake that occurred earlier today. It was a 7.0 and the epicenter was about 40 miles northwest of Concepcion. Santiago, where I am currently, is 270 miles north of Concepcion.
I was busy in language school when it occurred and no one at the school even realized there had been one. I did not hear it about it until I got home and saw the news. I assumed Santiago would have felt a quake this size as close as it was, but I didn’t. As far as I know now there was little damage done and no loss of life.
Thank you for your concern. Praise God we are all safe and pray that those closer to the epicenter are as well.
