Mary Ann heard helicopters right outside of her window, turned on the news and learned of the explosions. The security troops were focusing on Scotland for the beginning of the G8 summit, but the attack came in London. The French news reported that cell phone networks have been shut down either to hinder terrorist transmissions or to allow better rescue communication (consult the BBC web page for further information).
The Weaver and Barlow children were all at school and are now safe at home. Brian Weaver was on the other side of the city. Rhonda just wrote, "Just got a call from Brian, who is in Kingston (another part of London), and is fine....He doesn't know how he will get back home as all zone 1 public transport is shut down."
Thank you for your prayers for the Barlows and Weavers, for safety, for comfort and for opportunities to show Jesus' loving touch in the midst of suffering.
