VAUGHN, Ga. (AP) - Residents in the small town of Vaughn are beginning construction of a new church to replace the one that was destroyed by a powerful tornado in April.
Fox 5 Atlanta reports (http://bit.ly/t0tHfk) that members of Vaughn United Methodist Church broke ground on their new building Thursday in the Spalding County town.
Much of the town is still littered with debris from April's storm. Pastor Sandra Findley said the church building hit by the twister was more than 100 years old.
Before the storm, Vaughn had no more than 100 residents. Fox 5 reports that many of those people moved on after the tornado.
With the building of the new church, residents say they hope the town can also be rebuilt.
Vaughn is about 40 miles south of Atlanta.
