On October 13, 2010, millions of people from five continents literally stopped everything to watch spellbound as 33 miners were rescued form the mine of San Jose de Copiapo in the north part of Chile. What seemed like a hopeless tragedy became a milestone of discipline, courage, perseverance, and expertise. For 17 excruciating days no one knew whether these men had survived the collapse of the mine nor were they aware of any rescue attempts. They were trapped underground for a total of 69 days and it was there, in that frightening landscape, that one of them assumed the responsibility of keeping the men encouraged while using the tragedy as an opportunity to share his faith. 'Miracle in the Mine' is the story of Jose Henriquez. The story of a man who was not a stranger to the dangers of mining even before finding himself trapped 700 meters beneath the earth's surface in the mine of San Jose. One man who has unequivocally demonstrated his integrity, courage, and moral strength both before and after the mining accident and who is now using this experience to inspire the world.
