Magnolia Fires

Please pray for all the families in magnolia that have lost everything, and for all the firefighters and emergency responders working this massive fire. Ryan has been in magnolia fighting the fires for the past 2 days. He didn't get to sleep at all last night, so when he got home this morning he tried to get a few hours in. From what we know the fire is headed towards stagecoach, still about 10- 14 miles from our house (per ryan). The sky is black, in fact looking down our street the smoke looks like it is coming from the back of our neighborhood. I made Ryan drive me down 1488 to make sure people weren't evacuating somewhat close to our house. One thing Ryan said is that the forest department's efforts to cut down trees and turn the dirt over to stop the fire has been pretty much useless. He said the fire is 100-200ft high and it's catching the tops of trees on fire. It even jumped across 1488. Please pray that no lives are lost and that these guys can get the flames under control soon. Ryan goes back to work Saturday and Sunday. He is expecting to be deverted back to the magnolia fires.
