Samaritan's Purse, the international Christian relief organization, is still recruiting individuals and teams, including youth groups, to help rebuild homes devastated by the Joplin EF-5 tornado. As we approach the holiday season and look forward to spending time visiting with family, it is important to remember that some of our neighbors are still without homes.

I have just received a PDF from the Homeland Security Digital Library, entitled "The Response To the 2011 Joplin, Missouri, Tornado; Lessons Learned Study". This is a evaluation of the local, regional, state, and federal response to the EF-5 tornado and its aftermath. The document is unclassified and is redistributable.
