Join Us in Prayer for Southern California Amid Ongoing Wildfires

Dear Central California Conference Family,

We invite you to join us in prayer for our friends and neighbors across Southern California who are facing the ongoing threat of wildfires. These unpredictable blazes have forced evacuations and created urgent needs for shelter, food, and other essentials.

Our colleagues at the Southern California Conference are working diligently to mobilize churches as potential shelters. Adventist Community Services from both the Pacific Union and the North American Division are also on the ground, partnering with these conferences to serve those most affected.
