CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH: Presbyterians impacted by and responding to weekend tornado outbreak

Tornado(1000)

Central Presbyterian Church issued the following announcement on Dec. 13.

Six presbyteries were hit by deadly storms. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance is responding

Saturday afternoon, in the face of devastating loss, First Presbyterian Church of Mayfield, Kentucky invoked Scripture:

“The bricks have fallen down,

But we will rebuild with smooth stones;

The sycamores have been cut down,

But we will replace with cedars.” (Isaiah 9:10)

These were the first words in a Facebook post from a Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) congregation that saw its historic home leveled early Saturday morning as an unprecedented tornado ripped through four states and into its Western Kentucky home.

“Every square inch of this building was full of the Holy Spirit,” the post went on to say. “The corner of 9th and West Broadway is full of the Holy Spirit still.”
