The group of five, two SCNs, two SCNAs and the nephew of one Sister have been in touch and are still hard at work in Joplin, Mo., today. They report that damage from the storm is almost unbelievable to witness in person and that there is much relief still needed for the area.

More photos sent from the volunteer group have arrived, including the picture above of the remains of St. Mary's Church. Click here for more photos of the effort.
