California Fire Update

As things seem to be more under control with the California fires, I am thankful to report that Pastor Hyde and his family and the families in his congregation made it through without loss, as did Westminster Seminary. However, among the many Californians who lost their homes were two URC families, one in Escondido and one in Santee. Also, one of the brave fire fighters who served well is a member of the Oceanside URC congregation. For more detailed and accurate information about these families, click on the Oceanside URC blog at the right and go to Dr. Scott Clark's Heidelblog. He even includes information for those who would like to provide financial assistance for the two families, who have lost all of their possessions.
