“For he delivers the needy when he cries
out, the poor and him who has no helper.”
Psalm 72:12
A pastor is claiming divine
intervention after a behemoth boulder cast forth during a construction blast
nearly gutted a Massachusetts church.
The construction workers captured the
blast on video and watched the chunk of rock stop short of Saugus’ Grace
Ministries Church by one foot on Saturday.
The video begins with the crew
standing across the street from the church and counting down to a blast on a
neighboring property.
The explosives shook the ground and
then, a boulder leaped out of the protective covers.
“That’s not good,” a member of the
excavation crew said as they and Pastor Rick LeClair ran over to check on the
church and marvel at their blessing.
A video of the work project shows the crew circling the
rock cautiously, slightly unsure of its origin: “Where did that come from?”
They estimated the rock to be about 20
tons.
“I was thinking the church was going
to get wrecked,” Pastor LeClair told WCVB-TV, but his worst fears were
unfounded.
The rock could have shut the Grace
Ministries down if it crossed an additional 12 inches. Its congregation runs a
food pantry that feeds thousands of poor and homeless people, the TV station
reported.
