Mark from Spokes of Hope (who builds houses AND runs machines?!) sent us this video of he and his Amish friends preparing Brian and Terri’s footers today in Chimney Rock. They’ll be coming home soon! Thanks @Mercury1Charity for your continual support of the rebuild!!

North Carolina and Jamaica are still rebuilding after devastating natural disasters. We’re looking for volunteers, skilled leaders, and interns willing to step in and serve communities in long-term recovery. Come rebuild homes. Restore hope. Live on mission. Will you say yes?

Another family moving back home as soon as inspection is completed thanks to our partners at @Mercury1Charity and CORE! Praise God

Chip’s driveway has officially been RESTORED from the mudslide that wrecked it during Helene as the retaining wall is completed. Thank you to @CCDOC and @Mercury1Charity and Here We Grow for funding this project!

Timeline cleanse - “Nana”, who is over 90 years old and has been out of her house since Hurricane Helene, is getting her home returned to her thanks to our incredible partners at Spokes of Hope and @Mercury1Charity ! Thank you thank you!

The photo on the left is of the last home being washed away from Claudia and Isael’s lot during Helene. The photos to the right are of them being welcomed into their new home today. God is good! Thank you Valley Hope Church and @Mercury1Charity !!

In the River Arts District, the dissonance between Restored and “waiting” still sounds loud. Last fall our coalition completed the Marquee and put 400 people back to work. Right next door, this formerly destroyed building now has its shell back. Thank you to @Mercury1Charity @operationbless WhyNot Aid and our guys for not leaving the River Arts district alone!

If you’ve followed us for any length of time, you know that our team has been working in the background for over 9 months for approval to build Christine a new home. On Thursday, we break ground. So thankful to everyone who has made this possible. @Mercury1Charity #herewegrow

Yall remember seeing Thurleen’s house down to the studs just last week? Now look! @Mercury1Charity

Thurleen is over 80 years old. The water from Helene came up over 5 feet into her home, forcing her out since that day. Today, our team begins the process of bringing her home. Thank you to @Mercury1Charity and Divine Disaster for making this possible!

That’s a wrap! Crystal’s house is finished. Nice job boys. Thanks @Mercury1Charity and Divine Disaster for the support!

To some this may look like a simple remodel. To us it means Jonathan in Swannanoa will move back home soon. To our construction team, way to go boys 💪🏽. To @Mercury1Charity and Divine Disaster Relief - thank you thank thank you

Making some major progress at Crystal’s house! Let’s go boys! Thanks @Mercury1Charity @AdvRelief and Divine Disaster for the support! We are better together.

Update on the Broad River Inn from Shane and Spokes of Hope! Whew, this is a project. But what’s God do? He restores things to better than they were. Thanks @Mercury1Charity for the supplies!

During Hurricane Helene, a tornado destroyed the home of this mother of 9 in Burke County. Now, thanks to the generosity of @Mercury1Charity @RedCross and work of Divine Disaster, she and her children will have a home again.

Let’s go fellas! Almost there. Another homeowner close to being home in WNC thanks to our guys and the support of Divine Disaster @Mercury1Charity and @AdvRelief

Remember the River Arts District? Hurricane Helene utterly destroyed it, taking hundreds of jobs with it. Last year, our friends WhyNotAid, @operationbless and @Mercury1Charity restored 300 jobs by bringing the Marquee back. Now we’re going after 3 more buildings. This is what God does! He restores.

Timeline cleanse - victims of Hurricane Helene are STILL being restored here in WNC. Thanks to our guys and @AdvRelief @Mercury1Charity

Shane and his Spokes of Hope crew are beginning work on the Broad River Inn, restoring important overnight lodging to Chimney Rock. This is crucial to restoring the local economy! Thanks @Mercury1Charity for supplying material!

The boys are getting it done at Crystal’s house 💪🏽. Thanks to @Mercury1Charity and Divine Disaster Relief and @AdvRelief for the partnership!
