OPINION (CBN News) – A miracle story is emerging after a tornado struck Paducah, KY last week, devastating a church building where 40 preschool kids and 10 church staff were going about their day. The miracle? No one was killed or injured even though the roof was ripped off. The only room that survived unscathed was the room they were in. Church member Sylvia Cherry said, “We just give God the glory that no one was hurt.” On Thursday, residents of Paducah took shelter as a tornado tore through five miles of land. The twister
damaged several buildings including Mt. Zion Baptist Church. When the twister hit, the church’s pre-school was in full swing. Preschool Director Michelle Rushing took the 40 children to safety into the innermost room. As the storm raged around them, the Baptist Press reports they sang songs like “Jesus Loves Me” and “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands”. KFVS reported the church encountered massive damage as most of their roof came off. The only room not affected was the room where the children and teachers were using for shelter. READ MORE
