STORYLINE:
Massive rains brought by Hurricane Helene have left many people stranded or homeless as the cleanup begins from the monster tempest that killed at least 84 people.
Helene has caused billions of dollars in destruction across a wide swath of the U.S. Southeast.
Several million customers were without power Sunday.
Helene blew ashore in Florida’s Big Bend region as a Category 4 hurricane late Thursday and then quickly moved through Georgia, the Carolinas and Tennessee, uprooting trees, splintering homes and sending creeks and rivers over their banks and straining dams.
Deaths from the storm have occurred in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.
Many houses of worship along Florida’s Big Bend are dealing with power outages, damaged roofs and hurricane debris from Hurricane Helene.
Some people in this area lost nearly everything they own.
Just minutes after an outdoor service concluded at Faith Baptist Church in Perry, Florida on Sunday, the power in sanctuary flickered back on.
“Others have lost everything. They own homes and everything else. And Lord not have to start life over. Lord, what a terrible tragedy that must be," Senior Pastor Todd Taylor said.
