Carbon Hill churches gather for drive-in prayer service after Easter tornado plows similar path to 2002 storm

About 50 families in Carbon Hill came together April 15 to pray for those impacted by the Easter tornado that marked a similar path from 2002.

Scott McCullar, pastor of FBC Carbon Hill, organized a drive-in prayer service in the parking lot of the high school, and several pastors participated, as did the high school principal and football coach. They also prayed over each family present (by praying over the vehicle) as well as over Pastor David Toney, whose church — Grants Chapel CME Church — was destroyed.

Grants Chapel also was hit by the 2002 tornado.

“Carbon Hill, we are going to get through this,” McCullar said. “God [is] going to do something amazing.”
