A message from Bishop Dottie Escobedo-Frank regarding the wildfires local to our conference:

During this season of devastation caused by the wildfires, our hearts are with those who are affected, including our camps, congregations, and churches. We lift up prayers for the safety of our firefighters, comfort to those who are evacuating, and protection for our communities. We pray for peace beyond understanding and thank God for first responders and volunteers who will lift up our communities as we seek relief and work toward rebuilding. May God be near us all.
