Both the Jackson Sun and Baptist Press have updated their stories and posted photos of the wreckage and rescue operations at Union University following last night's tornado damage.
A tornado struck the Tennessee campus last evening about seven o'clock, trapping 12 students (according to Baptist Press, or 13 according to the Jackson Sun) in dorms that collapsed. All have now been freed from the debris.
Union's website is still down this morning, and classes have been cancelled until February 13 to allow the administration to assess damage and lay plans for the future.

I praise God for His mercy in this tradegy, for sparing so many lives. His presence was with you, and He will shelter you in His love. I was also moved by the testimonies aired on National TV stations, thanks to those who spoke with boldness crediting our Rock, our Shelter and the Lover of the souls of all men. Matt 21:44
