Helene Relief Phase 2: Rebuild Lives, Restore Hope

There’s a kind of silence that follows a storm. The kind where homes are left gutted. Where belongings float in waterlogged hallways. Where a woman stands on a porch that no longer exists and wonders if anyone remembers her name.

Western North Carolina is still carrying that silence.

And sometimes, the loudest thing you can do in the face of grief is show up quietly. With gloves and a prayer. With two willing hands and a heart that breaks open at the sight of someone else’s sorrow.

That’s what our disaster relief teams have done. They’ve stepped into stories that feel unfinished. They’ve helped rebuild staircases—and trust. Porches—and peace. Roofs—and hope.

One woman said to a team member through tears,
“It wasn’t just what you did. It was that you came. That you saw us.”

This is what we mean when we say the Church is still needed. And this August, you can be part of that miracle. We’re sending teams back into neighborhoods where the headlines have long since moved on—but the hurt hasn’t. You don’t need to be a contractor or a counselor. You just need to come. Bring your yes. Bring your time. Bring your heart.

Because when the Church shows up in the rubble, heaven breaks in.
