Mississippi River flooding led to more than a dozen homes being evacuated in an East Cape Girardeau mobile home park on Tuesday.
The American Red Cross originally had a shelter set up at The Spark Ministries building in McClure, but has now relocated it to Zion United Methodist Church on State Highway Z in Cape Girardeau.
Work is continuing on the Big Muddy Levee Pump Project in Jackson County to get all ten pumps on the ground and in operation.
