On the afternoon of Friday 11 March, an earthquake of magnitude 8.9 struck off Japan’s north east coast.
BBC News reports that this earthquake was 8,000 times more powerful than that which hit New Zealand on 22 February.
At least 10,000 people are feared to have been killed by the quake and the resulting tsunami.

- Japan’s Christians, who are small in number, but are ready to share God’s love
