The news about the flooding in Northwest Missouri has fallen silent.  Interstate 29 was closed June 15th and is not expected to reopen for another 6 to 12 months.  Businesses dependent on the interstate traffic are suffering.  Some have closed.  Jobs have been lost.  The water has receded some but homes are expected to stay flooded for a long time yet.  Persons who were evacuated and have now returned to their homes are having terrible problems with mold.  The NW Missouri flood story needs to be told.  This MissionCast gives us a start.

SERVE 2011 was an amazing success.  Our thanks to all who worked so hard to make it so.  And, thanks to the photographers and videographers from 35 or so churches who worked late on Saturday or Sunday night to send us material for this MissionCast.  We will devote several MissionCasts to sharing the SERVE 2011 story.  This MissionCast has some of the initial photos and video clips and reflections by Bishop Schnase who was serving at Kingdom House, in St. Louis.

Joplin looks much different today than it did a month ago.  In a record amount of time, most of the debris that was about all you could see has been hauled away.  Without branches upon which to grow new leaves, they are growing out of the  tree trunks.  With the job of rebuilding homes still some distance around the corner our volunteer in mission teams are breaking up concrete foundations and carrying the concrete to the curb.  Occasionally a sub floor has to be removed before the concrete can be busted up.  That is what we found the United Methodist Men from New McKendree, in Jackson doing Thursday afternoon.
