New Life At Calvary Was Struct By A Tornado In Cleveland, OH

For the first time in recorded history, a F-1 Tornado touched down in midtown Cleveland, OH.  In its path lay New Life At Calvary, a church that has sat of the corner of Euclid Avenue and East 79th Street for 141 years. New Life At Calvary is known for its service to the community, its love for its youth, and its outreach to other parts of the world. The impact of the tornado litterally tore the roof off of the building landing it on East 79th Street. The education wing which houses the children's area, the nursery area, and the music room was completely destroyed. The funds will be used to cover the costs of replacing items that the insurance will not cover along with the deductible. In addition to the roof, the nursery items, classroom items, and music room will all need to be refurbished.
