prayer request


Hi friends,
Just wanted to ask anyone who visits this site to please pray for the families in the San Diego area (including my parents) whose homes are being threatened by the wildfires. My parents were evacuated from their home in Escondido very early this morning, then evacuated again from the friend's house where they'd gone.
The fires are the lead story on http://www.cnn.com/ this morning.
The photo at right is not their home, but a news photo of a fire in that area. Currently their neighborhood is evacuated because the fire is nearby. Please pray that the fierce winds calm, so that their neigbhorhood will not be damaged.
I'd appreciate prayer for them and for all the residents of that area.
Thanks!

Wow, that is amazing, something so out of control and ravaging destruction that results. My house burned down when i was about 12, so this situation has been on my mind. will definitely be praying for your folks.

Thanks Dianne
It's kind of crazy out there. So far, it seems that the fire has not reached my parents' home. I do know of other folks who have lost their homes, tho. So sad.
You understand first hand what this kind of loss can mean.
