Perhaps the most notable consequence of the earthquake was at an Aeon shopping mall, where an additional explosion partially destroyed the building and ignited an ongoing crisis. Takeshi Takazawa with ministry A3 says many people were trapped under the rubble at the Aeon mall. “Summer vacation has already started, so many families were out in the mall,” Takazawa says. Many people worry that another earthquake is coming soon, as that is what happened during the disaster a decade ago. Pray for God’s saving hand in the rescue operations at Aeon mall and elsewhere, and pray that He would minister to those who are suffering.
