Tornado Touch Down
During Stake Conference last Sunday in Dothan, Alabama we all heard the sound of tornado sirens in the background. No one in Alabama seemed the slight bit nervous about it. On our way home we saw the damage, and then found out that a tornado had also touched down in Tallahassee.Our Marianna missionaries, including Elder and Sister Lay, and our Dothan Zone Leaders spent a day helping those with downed trees. All under the direction of President Aukema.
