I can not recall nature just be so destructive on the USA in a just a few months.
This is of course just down the road just a few miles from the City of Carthage where one of America's largest yearly events takes place. That is Mary Days.

Devastation in Joplin
Please keep the people of Joplin in our prayers, especially those whose lives were taken as well as those who lost loved ones. We pray especially for the people of St. Mary’s Catholic Church and school who suffered a total loss as well as St. John’s Mercy hospital which sustained major damage.
