KINGSTON SPRINGS, TN (WSMV) At least 24 tornadoes hit Tennessee. Most of them hit in Middle Tennessee, and are now making Sunday services look a lot different.
In Kingston Springs, some churches were impacted by the tornado. But, it’s not stopping them from holding services.
This has been an emotional week for the entire Kingston Springs community after a tornado attacked the community last weekend. Harpeth Baptist Church was just one of the buildings damaged in the destruction.
The church has been standing in Kingston since the 1800s.
A pastor with the church said that these are very trying times, but they have the faith to get through it.
“Mostly, it was the roof of our steeple that was torn off,” Pastor Strickland said. “And from that, a lot of rainwater got inside which caused the sheetrock to fall in. And it’s going to take a long time to put it all back.”
