Stranded Miners

Any word on if the stranded miners in WV are out yet? I can't seem to find any news online. My local news said they might reach them at 1 AM, but that was four hours ago.

My prayers are going out to the stranded miners also. My dad worked in the coal mines for years here in PA & finally retired. The Quecreek mine miracle here in PA shows that a miracle may also be in the works for the WV miners. I also worked here in PA for 17 years in a limestone mine. My heart goes out to the waiting families in hopes they will be joined with their loved ones soon.

Just was an up date on the miners. Doesn't look good. Carbon monixide levels are very high.
My heart goes out to all those trapped and their families.. God bless them all..

The mine is only about 2 hours from me...Its close to where my aunt has her farm. My father in law (along with my grandfathers) worked in the coal mines for years... he hopes they rescue them soon, before the carbon monoxide takes their lives.

Nice way to start 2006 out huh?

My heart & prayers are with those minors & their families. I've lost couple relatives to those mines & have couple thats gotten serious injuries working in them. I sure hope they find them all soon & they are safe.

My heart and prayers go out to the family and friends of the miners. Just heard an update, they have found one body, lets pray that the others will be found safe, one life is one to many.
