Jesusita Wildfire - Prayer Request

[Malia]

Requesting your prayers, for those of you who pray...

My hometown is being ravaged by a wildfire, which is out of control due to extreme and unpredictable winds. The evacuation boundary is getting closer by the hour and there is a chance I may need to evacuate in the near future. To be honest... I'm terrified.

I'm praying for the winds to die down and for our emergency service personnel. They have been working nonstop for several days now.

I will try to update my blog as often as I can, there is a link in my profile and my sig (you may need to join Multiply to see it, not sure).

Oh my Malia, I'm so sorry to hear about this. You're right of course... as soon (and if) you get the word, get outtta there just as fast as you can. Sending good thoughts your way,
Dich.

Still safe, no evacuation order yet.

Cautious Optimism.  The fire is now moving away from populated areas and the weather is allowing firefighters to make progress at last. Phew!

That's reassuring new, Malia. Still sending prayers though.

Good news. The fire is now 70% contained and most people have been allowed to return to their homes.
