CBN WorldReach Kumar Periasamy reports on a recent trip to the region in India that was devastated by an earthquake on Jan. 26. At least 30,000 people lost their lives, and a million people were left homeless in the 7.9 magnitude earthquake. Rows of apartments have been razed to the ground.
Bodies still lie under the rubble and there is a strong stench in the air.
The poor pound on chunks of concrete, trying to strip the steel embedded there. They hope to sell the steel for food. Families cannot accept the reality of losing beloved family members. Individuals are struggling with the loss of entire families. Yet some still hope.
