(CNN) -- A magnitude-7.1 earthquake struck the central Philippines on Tuesday, leaving at least 99 people dead and 276 more injured, and rattling many who were celebrating a religious holiday.

For those who have family in the PI, my prayers are with you.

Ow no! Please update us on your wife's family.

Oh no Janelle, my wife is from Malaysia, but I'll check since the two are close together and they do get the aftershocks. Thanks.

Everyone is fine in Cebu. My Brother in law posted several pictures on FB. The Bell tower fell of St Nino church in Cebu. I have been in that very spot many times. Bohol is hit pretty hard. Several centuries old churches flattened.

Ow no! Please update us on your wife's family.

Just cause somebody is Asian does not mean they are all from the same place.
