The tornado that hit Joplin impacted nearly 8000 structures. Many homes, along with churches, schools, businesses and one hospital, were completely destroyed in the wake of the tornado. The "Miracle of the Human Spirit" is alive and well in Joplin. Thousands of volunteers from around the country alongside the Army Corps of Engineers, are working steadily to clean up and begin the rebuilding process. Most of the original debris has been cleared: now begins the rebuilding process.
Our "Crestview Joplin Team" is helping families that suffered incredible loss and damages from the devastating tornado’s that hit this community recently. They are working on clean up, building, and special projects.
