Some of the women said they started cooking at 3 a.m. "My employer let me off for a week. I’m 53 and there’s not too many of people younger but plenty older," said Eric Holt. "I'm at the point I can afford to take off [and start] giving back to your community and country and do what god wants us to do." There are 14,000 volunteers that spend weeks or months of time.

Glenn Locklear was given only $300 from FEMA. When his house was beginning to flood it was the middle of the night and her heard his dog squeling from the yard. He put his feet down for them to disappear in the water. Casey, his dog, was about to drown in her kennel outside. He grabbed her and Casey swam while he waded in water to his waist seeking higher ground. He made it to the interstate that was closed off only to find no one was coming for them. He made the decision to go back to the house until a boat retrieved them the next day.

The Baptist Relief Men rebuilt 120 houses since Hurricane Matthew. Greg Riggs, one of the lead contractors of the Baptist Relief Men, said that social economics makes this land cheap, but the cheap land goes underwater. "I didn’t want to just be a pew polisher and God’s grace I had no degrees just a contractor as my claim to fame and he allowed me to go and influence lots of people." Only eight inches of water destroys appliances and most houses got a foot or more in their house. He said that without help and man power all the money pouring in means nothing.

Drew Hammonds, goes to Hyde Baptist Church, where the Baptist Men came to deliver meals. Hammonds volunteered every day since his home was not effected.

"Folks nice, but I don’t want see them ever again." They delivered over 3,800 plates of food during the course of the relief work.

Even though he leads the team rebuilding houses, he doesn't believe in sitting back and giving orders, but puts in the manual labor with the group.

An angel statue that Campbell's mother, Margaret, bought before she passed around the same time as the Hurricane Matthew. "My primary reason is not to go in the house and get paid because we get 00 dollars, but to be the hands and feet of Christ," said Riggs. "[With] every meal [or house we rebuild] we make sure they understand we are doing this to share Christ [because] as much as they need money they need hope."
