Tornado Warning - Sirens Going OFF

[Sherri]

I am online in between tornado activity!! What a fun way to spend my birthday; oh well, I'll always remember it.

Lighthouse UPC was hit, but I'm not sure how bad. Sharon Baptist church and school in Savannah was destroyed. Union University dorms were really hit badly, but the Lifeway bookstore seems to be ok. Our Edge/Sr. High Pastor is there now at the campus, rounding up all of our students, getting them to safe and dry housing.

Our Jr. High Pastor and his family were hiding under a desk in the office when the tornado went over, but they are safe.

We had baseball size hail pounding our house, but the skylights didn't break, thank the Lord. We had that happen once before, and it was a real mess. But it sounded like cannons were attacking us. We were in a hall closet.

Our music pastor for Cordova and his family are fine, but several houses (just two or three away from his) were completely destroyed. He lives here in Jackson. My bank has all it's windows blown out; hope all my money is still there! LOL! The gas station across the street from the bank is completely gone. What a mess and we haven't even seen the worst system come through yet. It is just now hitting Memphis, so pray for Renda. Then it will be here in a little over an hour.
