UPDATE #3: SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA<\/h2>\n

Report from Pastor Billy Woods, Hope Christian Center, Bakersfield, California<\/em><\/p>\n

We received an update from Pastor Billy Woods this morning. According to local authorities, the fires in and around Lake Isabella are 60% contained. It is projected that the fires will be fully contained by Tuesday, July 5.<\/p>\n

There is a tremendous amount of damage to individual homes as well as entire communities. Woods is leading a team into the devastated areas today to deliver as many hygiene kits as possible to displaced individuals and families. There are a number of campgrounds throughout the area where people are in temporary housing. This will be a large area of focus. If you would like to contribute to help provide families with these kits, you may reach Pastor Billy at (661) 472-2039.<\/p>\n

In addition to providing hygiene kits, on Tuesday, Woods will lead several teams into parts of the devastated areas to help individuals and families begin the clean up process. If you or someone you know is interested in serving on a clean up team, please contact Pastor Billy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

Report from North Carolina Conference DRUSA Coordinator, Gordon Knox<\/em><\/p>\n

The North Carolina Mobile Feeding Kitchen<\/a>is preparing to feed large crowds over the Independence Day weekend. Saturday, Day 5, is certain to be the largest day of feeding, with expectations of serving approximately 1500 meals.<\/p>\n

Sixteen volunteers arrived early this morning from various areas, putting a smile on the face of Gordon Knox, team leader for the Kitchen. Knox reports that several volunteers brought their pickup trucks. This will be of great benefit to the teams that are delivering meals out into the field today. With each passing day, there are more and more calls for deliveries to those assisting with the clean-up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n
