Gas explosion kills 6 children

Hey, everyone, a friend of mine e-mailed me a prayer request for a local family and a terrible tragedy. A woman and 8 of her 9 children went to Michigan to visit family, and a gas explosion in the house where they were staying killed 6 of the children and destroyed the house. The mother was not there at the time, as she was helping with her invalid sister elsewhere. The oldest child was a high school graduate and was obviously sitting the rest of the children. She and 5 others were killed. The two children who survived are in the hospital with burns, and one of these two has a collapsed lung.
According to the e-mail, this is a family of Christians. Please pray for the mother, the children who survived, and for the loved ones of this family, including their home church (which I believe is in Virginia).
When I found out about this, it brought me to tears. This is so terrible. May God bless this family during this difficult time.
