One town, Henryville, is just twenty miles from where I live and was decimated. A friend of mine grew up there--her family home was south of the tornadoes, but her high school and other places she knows well are shattered.
My home church has a retreat center/summer camp just outside of town that is still standing and recently got power back. They are providing shelter and food to those who need it. You can see what work is being done--and what needs they have--by visiting Country Lake's facebook page.
Now, we have snow on the ground. Louisville is quiet and peaceful--and thankfully in the right position to provide help to our neighbors in the state and just over the river.
