Oklahoma is ok
Shall not perish does not mean hell. Inserting your assumptions are what has warped Christianity.

Since when does this trash news channel care about american cities? All you do is talk shitkrane.
Shawnee devistated but hey everyone the mayors house is fine
The rest of us are lucky we aren’t there lol
I was there when it happened I live in Shawnee Shawnee got hit hard my the tornadoe hit my house when I was in it my house is damaged Shawnee got hit with a F3 bro Kickapoo has bad damaged so does downtown Shawnee tornadoes ain't no joke man stay safe
I am from Shawnee, and am a Monk at St.Gregory's Abbey, in Shawnee. I am in Lawton with a broken leg, so I was not in Shawnee, at time the storms hit. I am praying for all of Oklahoma, and especially, my Brothers at The Abbey. May The Lord hear our cries and restore our land. In Jesus Christ Name we Pray, Amen. Brother James Kendall Moore OSB OFS OSC ✝️
Beard, Broadway, main, ect. are in the older more histrionic part of town, near Kickapoo, and O.B.U. campuses. The worst tornado to hit Shawnee, hit the same areas, back in the 1920s.
Ed is the best mayor we've had & he takes the BEST pictures of my kid in her cosplay. My house has damage & trees uprooted laying on down power lines. So many others have it worse than I or the mayor do. I'm thankful for everyone helping & working non-stop to help our city.
We were in the middle of it and our home had roofing ripped off. I'm amazed our little home is still standing.
There are hundreds of people out of work due to the businesses that were destroyed. This isn't a huge town & those employment losses are a hit to the local economy. Lowe's, Big Lots, Staples, stores out at the mall, Braum's, Dillard's…the list is extensive. They will need financial support while rebuilding. What needs to be done for them? And what about the nursing homes that were destroyed? One of them was an older facility & may have to be completely torn down & rebuilt. Where will the residents go? This is a bit more serious than was presented.
Shawnee is strong and will come back. Already churches have helped clear trees at my home. Tnx Chris Stroud & Church of Christ and Fr. Tom Dahlman & crew from Emmanuel Episcopal Church !!!
That's nothing, you should see the real damage
ခရိယာန်ကဘာကြောင်းတရုတ်တိုယုံကြည်တဲ့ခရယာန်နဲ့အနောက်နိုင်ငံခရိယာန်မတူတာလဲ။
သဘာဝဘေးဆိုတာဘယ်လူမျိုးဘယ်ဘာသာမဆိုခံရမှာဘဲသူကသဘာဝတရားအားကြီးတယ်။
I like how he only shows his neighborhood that was barely affected. Kickapoo was hit hard and he's all about the big trees he can replant…no wonder there's so many crackheads in Shawnee. Guy has his head straight up his ass
