Historic fires continue to rage over many places in California. At least ten lives have been lost and over 9,000 structures have been affected, with most of those totally destroyed. Over 130,000 people have been evacuated. Many of those will have nothing to return to.

MNA Disaster Response is in contact with local leadership in the Pacific Presbytery as well as local PCA churches in the impact zone. To date church structures seem to be ok, but many PCA congregants have lost their homes. Assessments are still coming in as the fires continue to rage.

There currently is a false POST on social-media telling people to “come to California to help”; however, the L.A. County Sheriff has stated that no one was currently being allow into the fire areas.

We will post more information as it becomes available. For now, PLEASE continue to pray for those in the path of these powerful, destructive fires.
