Earthquake Prone

I didn't know this until today, but earthquakes are common in Guatemala. This morning we had a small earthquake, magnitude 4.9. According to the USGS, the earthquake's epicenter was about 25 miles SW of Xela. Honestly, I wouldn't even have known that it was an earthquake unless someone had told me. It just seemed like a heavy wind. It was kind of funny though, because it happened during church while we were praying!
