Sugar Refinery Explosion--Please Pray

Not too far from where I live there was a major explosion at a Sugar Rifinery Plant last night. There are people who are still missing and many more are severely burned. Some of them have been airlifted to Augusta where the best burn center in the area is located. Many of those people are in critical condition. The fire is still burning this afternoon. We don't know what caused the explosion and subsequent fire. They are thinking it could be sugar dust that apparently is quite combustible. (Who knew!) Lots of unknowns right now.

You can read the story here.

There are reports of workers coming out the plant with 3rd degree burns all over and all they wanted to know was that their friends were okay.

Please pray for the workers and their families. Also, pray for the rescue workers and the medical teams treating the workers.

Thanks!
