In Joplin, Missouri (MO.), USA, a tornado has ravaged the city on Sunday evening, May 22, 2011, but the cross at Joplin's St. Mary's Catholic Church was still standing strong, steady and undamaged.
It just shows that God is great indeed, a message that God will provide strength, He will always be there standing for His people no matter what happened.

In an AFP report Monday, at least 24 people were killed in the Joplin, Missouri Tornado, which directly struck a hospital, the St. John Regional Medical Center, with its roof being ripped off and the patients had to be evacuated.
It's not confirmed though in the report if the 24 killed were patients from the hospital, but it says that schools and business establisments were also severely damaged.
