Tornadoes!!!

Spring always brings a wild array of weather...and this year is no different! This past week, Tennessee, along with Alabama, Kentucky, and several other states, were hit hard by spring tornadoes. Spring Hill dodged most of the damage, but other areas were not near as lucky. One community, Murfreesboro, suffered major damage, including two fatalities and many serious injuries. The clean-up effort has been non-stop since the storms passed, and it is amazing to see the community come together to help each other in such a hard time. However, these efforts are not only local. Volunteer crews have come from all over the state of Tennessee, and some from out of state, to help with the clean up and to provide shelter for the many families who were effected by these storms. This a true sign of humbleness and caring during a time when our world is in much turmoil. There is always hope!
