Joplin MO, May 22, 2011
On this date, just before 5:30pm, Joplin was hit by the largest tornado in recorded history.
Over 7000 homes and 300 businesses were destroyed and 162 people lost there lives.
On Nov 6, 2011, Ceres Christian Church put a team together to go to Joplin to help out with the rebuilding efforts. They sent a team of 5 people to work with IDES International Disaster Emergency Services.While there, they helped with the rebuild of one family's home along with several other tasks throughout the community...pitching in wherever needed.
Here are just a few pictures of their trip.
