Brussels Airport and metro rocked by explosions, at least 21 dead

[hatcheckgirl]

Unfortunately, it's happened again.  Bomb blasts in Brussels at the airport and at a metro train station just days after the arrest of the main suspect in the Paris Nov 2015 bombings.  It's a very sick world...

That crossed my mind with the memorial tomorrow night.

May we pray for the brothers and sisters all over the world in war torn, terror torn, economic torn, persecution torn, stress torn areas... Yes everywhere that they may celebrate the Lord's evening meal!

I heard but cannot confirm there may have been Brothers hurt or killed in this one. It was from a FB post that I got. If anyone has info please share.

just received this from my friend:

" I contacted several of the friends there.  I have heard from 2 so far.

One of the brothers that works at the airport was on his way to service for the entire day at the airport area.  He is safe, thanks to Jehovah.  He is now in the process of calling the brothers and sisters to be sure that they are safe.  He said he will keep me posted.

A sister said:  it's kind of chaos, but we are safe. All the brothers and sisters I know are fine too,even for ones who work in airport. University where I work is now closed.  We are at level 4 for security. 

This is what I know about our brothers there.  Please keep them in your prayers.  We are so deep in the last days. "

and this from a brother in Belgium, my husband knows:

 

YES. . .YES. . .!!!

WE are O. K.

We were actually in field service when we heard.

I contacted a person who works at the airport (the exact place where the bomb was detonated), she was not on duty.

She knows most who work there and had had contact with them but NO ONE WAS HURT.

He doesnt know how right he is yet so wrong in how to do it. Let your Kingdom come Jehovah. Please.

I'm hoping that it doesn't interfere with memorial celebrations as well. My prayers are with the brothers and sisters there.

Thanks be to Jehovah for that.  I have not looked at any of the pictures  ... we went through a similar thing here in Paris and it's strange, I didn't think I was effected but I guess I was since I'm feeling a bit shakey and emotional hearing this.  I pray with all my heart that the brothers and sisters are all okay and feel so sorry for the victims.  Oh  how we yearn for the kingdom!!

Do we have any updates on how the brothers faired in Brussels? any injured? hopefully not killed?  and were they able to have their memorial meetings?

I was reading the news and saw the picture of the young  Purevian woman coming to New Jersey for a her sisters wedding.  Her husband and daughters survived this horrible act. Such a beautiful family viciously disrupted so many innocent lives.  So appreciate Our God Jehovah ...His Son and the Kingdom.
