Part 4/12:
Remarkably, the water veered away from the church, sparing its structure and many lives—an event regarded as a divine miracle. Joe Stalin, the church’s clerk, recalls how in just 15 minutes, the waves claimed over 2,000 lives in Banani Tadu, yet those who sought refuge in the church were spared. Bodies along the shore were unrecognizable, and Joe helped oversee many burials, marking a somber reminder of the disaster’s toll.
