Qinghai Earthquake

Earlier today, a 6.9 earthquake hit Qinghai province, near Tibet. This region is especially poor, known for its beautiful scenery and rich culture of the people. Many, many students have come from this province in the past and several are here now. As of right now, the best the media will say is two people injured, but some other international media sources are saying that around 70 people were killed. This area is very high up in the mountains and typically communication is a little tricky anyway into there, but now it's almost impossible. Please pray for the students who came here from Qinghai as they try to reach loved ones back home.
