Wordpress activity log

We have several weird things happen with our wordpress site.  Several pages were sent to trash and we're curious to know if there is a log file that may track the activity in the site from Wordpress.  I'm not thinking its malicious, but rather someone in our church that didn't know what they were doing.

suggestions?

Perhaps easier; Deletes and Restores show up as "Revisions". After you restore the item, if you open the post up and then click "Screen Options" in the top right hand corner and check the "Revisions" box there will be a list of revision dates.

It is not labeled "Moved to Trash" or "Restored" but if you know the time frame it happened in and there weren't a bunch of other edits made to it you could tell which user did it. Or at least tell which users recently touched the post so you can perhaps give some user training about avoiding accidentally clicking the "Move to Trash" link, which is easy to do for non-computer literate because you can do it right from the grid view of "All Posts". Especially someone with a touch screen computer, they may have just meant to click "Edit" or "View" and accidentally clicked "Trash".
