Missouri1/20/2026 St LouisThe second week of May 2025, an EF3 tornado swept through the St. Louis area. In the following weeks, the same area experienced severe storms and flooding. These back to back disasters caused widespread damage, and claimed the life of a pillar in the community of Centennial Christian Church. The community has been working to rebuild, and slowly welcoming volunteers to be a part of the recovery. Week of Compassion continues to support and work alongside partners in the rebuilding efforts for years to come.
