Wind, rain, and hail caused by Hurricane Florence damaged St. Stephen AME Zion Church. Roof damage enabled water to enter the building, damaging the electrical system, flooring, ceilings, and walls. The HVAC system was also destroyed. Golden LEAF Disaster Recovery Grant Program funds were used to repair the building, replace the HVAC, and repair electrical damage. Insurance proceeds were used for the completion of repairs and a replacement roof.
