We are back here Blog Readers, Followers & Visitors for another informative Blog Session.

As wildfires rage on in California, our Unsung Heroes are on the front lines.

If you were here for our last Blog Session, then you are aware of what is currently going on in the state of California.  Our firefighters have been working day and night battling the wildfires.  Firefighters are not given enough credit or money for the work that they do.  Firefighters put their lives at risk to save people and property on a daily basis.  There is a special calling to be a Firefighter, and not everyone has the guts to do it, nor the calling for it.  Today, let us say a prayer for our Firefighters.

Let us say a golden Prayer for our Firefighters

People are running for their lives to escape the fast-moving wildfires.  Sadly, lives have been lost ~ 23 people are dead (from Sonoma, Napa, Mendocino and Yuba counties), where 3,500 homes and businesses have been burned at last count.  Hundreds are currently missing.

Residents in Santa Rosa, California returned to find their homes burnt to the ground after wildfires devastated Northern California.

Santa Rosa, California ~ Devastation of Homes

In Santa Rosa, California, the wind known as the Diablo has picked up again, the air is dry, there is no rain in sight, and the killer wildfires ravaging Northern California's wine country remained almost completely uncontained.  Officials warned that some of the big fires could merge, even as new blazes erupted, and thousands of people have been told to prepare to leave their homes -- if they haven't already done so. 

The impact from the wildfires could last a decade.  Homes, businesses, and jobs are impacted.  The wine industry is also heavily affected.

Cellphone towers are down in many areas, and therefore cellphone service is spotty.  There are family members attempting to find their loved ones.  Animals are being rounded up by some agencies during this time.

As we continue to keep a close eye on what is going on in the state of California and the wildfires, please keep everyone in your prayers.
