With Red Flag Warnings back in affect today, Southern Californians joined in prayer at their local churches. This included the 43 Salvation Army Corps (churches) in Southern California that met today to pray for help and remind each other where their hope comes from.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Salvation Army Corps in the affected areas of Santa Monica, Pasadena, Hollywood, Glendale, Oxnard, San Fernando Valley also joined for worship today. Lt. Colonel Mike Dickinson, Divisional Commander for Southern California, joined the Pasadena Tabernacle Corps this morning. \u201cIt was somber. Today I sat with people who have lost everything but their hope. Their resolute faith was humbling,\u201d Dickinson shared. \u201cI hugged families that experienced total loss. They\u2019re numb, but so grateful they are alive and giving thanks to God for their temporary shelter and a supportive church family.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even while The Salvation Army congregations met together, many of the officers (pastors) and volunteers from these same churches were preparing meals for the evacuation shelters as we continue to serve, feeding and encouraging evacuees as the need continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once red flag warnings are over and relocation is allowed, The Salvation Army has mobilized Emotional & Spiritual care teams to visit neighborhoods affected by the Eaton Canyon and Palisades Fire to offer comfort, food, and practical assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Salvation Army is preparing to be a resource to those affected at the Local Assistance Centers\/Disaster Recovery Centers once activated.<\/p>\n
