Please send your prayers out for the people in Joplin, MO. They had a horrific tornado come through their city yesterday. So far 89 dead. God be with Joplin, MO and the people there.
A massive tornado that swept through the Missouri town of Joplin
has killed at least 89 people, a senior local official has announced. "We have
89 confirmed dead due to this tornado," City Manager Mark Rohr said. The
tornado struck the town of Joplin on Sunday evening, less than a month
after a horrific tornado outbreak left 354 dead across seven US states. It
was the deadliest of 46 tornadoes reported to the US National Weather
Service in seven states on Sunday. "It's a war zone," Scott Meeker of the
Joplin Globe newspaper said.
