[Ittybittygma]

Please answer a special request for prayers. Asking for prayers for folks in Nebraska and Iows and on East as tornadoes rip thru the area. My sister, Marianne, sent me the following a few min ago. We have so many friends and relatives all over Nebraska. Weather map looks awful, so much red, yellow,purple, the bad colros on that map.

Msg from Marianne, Shirley Mae's sister, in Nebraska..........

hi, pray for Pilger in NE Nebr near Norfolk. I think about 350 there. 1/2 town leveled by 2 tornadoes a mi.apart, one 1/2 mi wide. One home leveled,just concrete slab left,not even debri there, some places have people trapped. Big brick school 1/2 gone&all windows out.
Every structure he could see for five or six blocks in the Stanton County community of 378 had been damaged. "There's no street signs left," Davidson said. "Cars are tossed."

He also saw a car inside a home. "It's very chaotic here right now." Davidson talked with group of people who had sheltered in a vault in a bank&Vlg Cafe and emerged OK.

Govr declared an emergency so can send in the NE Natl Guard, which is on standby.

Damage also has been reported in the Stanton, Wisner
At least one of the tornadoes lifted off the ground several times before touching down again.

Big grain bin in mid. of town gone, with debri all over,big pile of corn. About 60 people standing outside of town,won't let in,lines down,mud,metal etc on rds, calling in emts from diff. counties.

Wasn't far I don't think from where cousin Gailen lives in Stanton or Hoskins?. At 1 time, showed 3 tornadoes live on tv, now tornado on ground on hy 92 headed for Burwell & maybe 2nd one ,could be about 2" sz hail & one around Sioux City,Iowa, sounds like bad night, windy here,real humid,86 deg.

Heard Fremont BP station roof twisted around night before. Hope all's ok there?
here's photos of some damage. I'll have to email Dick tomorrow. Heard 1 killed, 16 critical injuries they know so far.
