Eaton Fire Relief

The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust him.

Nahum 1:7

THE NEED IS GREAT.
OUR GOD IS GREATER.

THE SITUATION

How the fire has impacted the area

• 14,000+ acres destroyed

• 7000+ structures damaged

• 105,000  under evacuation orders

• 11 people dead

Wildfires  rapidly tore across the San Gabriel Valley and the greater L.A. area, burning through land, homes, and businesses. The air quality is at a hazardous level,  70,000 people are under evacuation orders, and electric companies have shut off power in certain neighborhoods to reduce risk.

OUR CHURCH

How the fire has impacted Expressions

Supplies we have lost:

• Audio and video equipment 

• Laptops, printers, office supplies 

• Signs, banners, and canopies

• Furniture, toys, ministry materials

We are a brand new church plant, and have been renting from Church of Christ Pasadena for office space and Sunday worship. The entire building has been burned down, and nothing inside is left.  All of our production equipment, signage, and supplies in the building are gone. Help us build back as we help build the community.
