The death toll continues to climb after two major earthquakes devastated areas of Turkey and Syria. Christians in the area are sheltering in churches and asking for prayer for those still trapped in the rubble

Nineteen-year-old Majd George woke up the moment the earthquake hit: “I switched on the flashlight of my mobile phone and saw everything was shaking. I jumped out of bed and started shouting. I ran into the my sister’s room, she was freaking out. We woke up my parents. We held hands and started praying. It was terrible.”
