Ishikawa Prefecture Earthquake

Prayers for all in Ishikawa, hit so hard by a massive earthquake on New Year’s Day.

While the loss of life was not as high as it might have been, in the hardest hit area, the city of Suzu on the Noto Peninsula, 90% of all the buildings were flattened. There are about 33 sake breweries in Ishikawa Prefecture, and of the 12 in that hardest hit Suzu area, four were completely destroyed, all but two took on massive damage. Furthermore, the aftershocks are not finished, and some of them are quite strong. It will call for great support on many levels if they are to recover. Please be on the lookout for ways to provide that support, in any one of a number of ways, including financially.

I will post more information about ways to give, as well as other relevant info, as it becomes available.
