Like many of you, I didn’t know the full extent of what was transpiring in North Carolina and Tennessee after the hurricane. The news coverage was brief, and the stories from the ground were few. But what I discovered was a community devastated by the storm, left waiting for help that, in many cases, never came. What truly moved me, though, was the resilience of the locals and the volunteers who stepped up in the absence of government support. Their strength, their selflessness, and their faith have been nothing short of remarkable.
Over four days I was able to follow the people of the Sentinel Group and have put together a mini series to show you what has transpired.
This series will be released in four parts, each shedding light on the powerful response to the hurricane that devastated the Elk River and Spruce Pine communities in North Carolina. Through intimate stories of survival, volunteerism, and the power of faith, we uncover how these communities have turned catastrophe into a testament of resilience.
