Anyone who would care to offer special prayers for my brother's family in particular in your next chat with the Lord, you have my thanks.

You got it.

It seems like a lot of us have family and friends in the area. Maybe one of our prayer warrior freepers can start a thread and we could all add our loved ones?

Thanks to all of you who prayed. You have helped.

Last word from my brother is that his home is still standing, but everything else around the home is gutted. Just a small swath of properties along his lonely street were spared, and they may not be out of danger just yet.

They're being told by an emergency services friend on the mountain that their street would make a dramatic picture of several untouched homes surrounded on all sides by scorched remains of their neighborhood. It's all just burnt to the dirt for acres around in all directions except for his home and a few others on his street. Maybe we'll see just that sort of picture on the news when the media vultures finally get up there when it's safe to roll video.

Brother also tells me that the true extent of the damage to Lake Arrowhead is very under-reported. It's going to be hundreds of homes lost in what used to be about the finest place you could find up there.

For those continuing to pray, please consider some words for those who have lost everything. There will be more people than can be assuaged of their loss when the real effect of this tragedy is finally known.
