Churches help rebuild after tornadoes

Posted: Updated:

RUTHERFORD COUNTY, NC (WBTV) --  A dozen church members helped repair and rebuild areas hit hardest by tornadoes in January.

On Saturday, volunteers worked from sunrise to sundown in the Ellenboro area. The air was filled with the constant drone of electric saws and the hammering of nails. A light drizzle did not keep the volunteers away.

Dozens of homes were either heavily damaged or destroyed when tornadoes came through Burke, Rutherford and Caldwell Counties.
