• Beauty from ashes (whosonthemove.com) — Marshall's tiny Marshall Pres congregation is worshiping again in its restored sanctuary just two years after Hurricane Helene's floodwaters devastated both the church and much of town. A visiting speaker describes how elderly members and outside volunteers shoveled mud, rebuilt, and turned heartbreak into a hopeful rededication service that drew locals and supporters back into the community.
• Two years after the storm, Hurricane Helene shapes NC survivors' politics and beliefs (wunc.org) — Marshall residents describe how Hurricane Helene's destruction of key buildings like the post office, fire station, and city hall still shapes daily life and political views two years later. Local business owners and parents share struggles with insurance, federal aid, and climate concerns, while advocacy groups organize concerts and outreach to keep recovery and survivor needs on the political agenda.
