Someone just forwarded a link of the English newspaper I used to read while I was in Japan.

Completely.
While I'm almost sure there's no way the water could have gotten all the way to the Mura, almost all of my people have worked in Kuji since the city merge back in 2006.
Tuff Shed Man.
Village Pervert.
Hosa.
Masumi.
They all worked at the city hall.
Here are more pictures I've found, one of Hachinohe (north) and Miyako (south). I went to church in both of these places, just blocks from where these pictures were taken:
There is also moderate damage in at least two areas from my mission and I have yet to hear from any of the members I've tried to contact.
I think I'm going to vomit.

Oh, Erin. My heart hurts for you and your people.
I can't find words...
I didn't realize this was your mission. I am so sorry, Erin. My deepest heartfelt sympathies.
I'm so sorry--I hope you get some news soon.
