I sure hope everyones family is ok. I rarely watch the news but did this morning. It is so sad to see everything devastated.
It difficult to sit here and know there is not a darn thing I can do to help.

For some reason I am so touched by this tornado; maybe it's just the last straw about US disasters this spring. I'm tearing up and praying. First thing I did this morning was check news; SO many of our members live in MO, we care and worry about them and their families.
Please, God, let all find their loved ones safe and unharmed.
Let them reach out to those in sorrow and need.
Let the systems that work during times like these be thorough and complete and speedy in returning to things to a bearable state.
In Jesus's name give them a garment of praise for this spirit of heaviness.

For those looking for loved ones.. I've been watching the Weather channel and if you go online to their site they have a couple of areas to register for looking for loved ones. They are saying that the path of the tornado was 1/2 to 3/4 of a mile wide . .hoping if she lives a mile from St. John's that she was outside the area of damage. Best wishes with finding her healthy and unaffected.
