    Latter-day Saint Meetinghouse in Auckland Damaged in Tornado

    The Auckland New Zealand, Papatoetoe Great South Road Meetinghouse of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints sustained major damage after a tornado struck the area on Saturday 27 June.

    There were a group of people in the cultural hall at the time of the weather event but they sheltered in another part of the building and no-one was hurt.

    Church facilities management staff and local Church leaders are assessing the damage and planning what reconstruction and repairs will need to be done.
