Waldo Canyon Fire

  1. For those of you who don't know, there is a fire in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. It is called the Waldo Canyon Fire, and so far it is 15,324 acres, and over 1000 firefighters are fighting this fire, also 32,000 people have already evacuated their homes because of this fire which is only 5% contained. Please keep all these people involved including the firefighters in your prayers. This is very scary, and I have never seen anything like this. I understand most of you aren't effected by this but others are, and many homes have already been burned down. Please keep this fire in your prayers, and I just wanted to notify those who don't know about this fire that this is scary. Thank you for reading, and feel free to comment as much as you like. Questions are also welcome but I don't have all the answers so I will answer them to the best of my ability.
     
  2. I prey that everyone gets out safely and that it doesn't get as big as some of our bush fires in Australia

    Eg:
    On the 7th February 2009 we had a giant bush fire that burned 1.1million acres, claimed 173 lives and destroyed 2029 homes, it was a terrible day
     
  3. That's so horrible. I hope it doesn't get that bad here.
     
  4. Hope everything goes well. And hopefully it doesn't turn out like the California wild fires a couple summers ago where there were over 100 different fires up and down California.
