ROBIN Roberts has resurfaced outside of the Good Morning America studios with a heartbreaking message.
She filmed a segment in Mississippi, after she has been absent this whole week.
On Monday morning, Robin reported from Rolling Fork, and the devastation it received from the tornadoes.
She informed viewers that GMA is kicking off a new initiative called Mississippi Strong.
There was then b-roll of the devastation of the storm, with houses, trees, and more completely down and ruined.
As Robin talked to the police chief, Michael Miles, of the town, he delivered a heartbreaking message about the town.

"It breaks your heart to know that so many families have lost so much," he said.
Robin and Michael talked about how they needed help more than anything to rebuild their town.
The GMA host described it as the three R's- removal, rebuilding, and reopening.
However, at the end of the segment, she delivered some good news about the town.

"I've got to tell you, people are very hopeful around here. They're very upbeat and grateful," Robin said.
She then informed everyone that there are ways to help and that they can head to the show's website to find out how.
The next segment on air will show Robin and the people of the town rebuilding their local high school.
ON THE ROAD
Robin has been missing from GMA since last Thursday.
Fans did not know where she was, until she tweeted about it on Monday.
GMA tweeted out: "WEDNESDAY ON @GMA: Our community will be back.'"
"@RobinRoberts heads to Rolling Fork, Mississippi to show how the community has been #MississippiStrong after a devastating tornado."
Robin then quote tweeted with a praying hands emoji.
Weekend anchor Kristen Welker has filled in for Robin all week.
The TV personality also didn't appear on Friday's show as Juju Chang, 57, filled in for the anchor.
It is not clear when Robin will be back on the morning show.
'STAY SAFE'
Fans took to the comments of Robin's tweet to tell her to "stay safe."
"Safe travels Robin. I know this community will appreciate all the help and support they can get, as well as all the others who have been part of these horrible storms," one fan wrote.
"Robin be safe! I know you being there will bring the folks from Mississippi hope, faith and joy! Be safe! God bless!" said another.
A third added: "Robin please stay safe."
"Prayers for all. Be safe," wrote a follower.
"This is heartbreaking. Stay safe, Robin," said another fan.
'LOOKING FORWARD!'
Although Robin was absent from the morning show last week, it was for a happier reason.
She presented a new award for her father's alma mater in Iowa.
Last Tuesday, Morningside University tweeted out the news.
"Tomorrow night at 5:30 p.m., @RobinRoberts will be on campus to present the 2023 Waitt Lecture in Eppley Auditorium as part of the inauguration of @MsidePresident. The event is free and open to the public. Fun fact: Robin Roberts father Col. Lawrence Roberts was an Mside alum!" they wrote.
Under it, they posted a photo of Robin and the information that the attendees should know.
