<p>Some of you have probably already heard, but SoCal is on fire right now. There are 11 fires burning out of control, 9 in SD county alone. The worst ones are 0% contained. 300,000 people have been evacuated in SD, and over 600 homes have burned down so far (remember, they aren't even contained yet). I know you guys can help, so if you could keep my family, friends, and SoCal residents in your prayers, I would be so grateful. Thank you, and God Bless!</p>
<p>Thank you! We were given mandatory evacuation orders at 5:30 this morning, as a new, 1000+ acre fire broke out and is 0% contained. Keep praying!</p>
<p>hey VC, I dont know how threatened you are, but my brother has a house in Mission Beach and if you guys have nowhere to go then Im sure he will let you guys in with open arms .... its an alternative to going to a shelter ( if thats your only option )</p>
<p>I PMed you my number if you decide to consider it</p>
<p>Thanks so much to those of you who expressed concern for myself and my family during this difficult time. I was able to return home last night, and, with the exception of ash being everywhere, everything was fine. Spending almost an entire week in an evacuation center was certainly a humbling experience, and I will never again take a shower for granted. Thanks so much again, may God bless you and yours always!</p>
