In response to the needs precipitated by the wildfires in southern California, both the LCMS Pacific Southwest District and the LCMS are collecting funds to help.

Funds may be sent to the LCMS Pacific Southwest District or to The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod.

This Article in the LCMS Reporter has additional information.

Let us continue to pray for all who are affected by the wildfires and help in any way that we can as we, with repentant hearts, turn to the Lord who brings life and hope to us by His grace.

Oh, save your people and bless your heritage!
Be their shepherd and carry them forever.
(Psalm 28:9 ESV)

Peace and hope in Christ,

Bishop Taylor
