Los Angeles-area Christians shine as wildfires burn homes and churches
“One of the windstorms blew, and it was like a fireball, and it blew straight toward me. All I could do was just back up, and that was it. I had to get out of there.”
Eon Walk — chief financial officer for the Pasadena Church of Christ, also known as the Kinneloa congregation — recounted her experience trying to enter the Southern California church building as the Eaton Fire encroached.
She wanted to save the building blueprints and grab a fire extinguisher to stop a nearby bush fire from spreading. But she returned home empty-handed.
