Los Angeles Battles Most Destructive Fire in City's History, Displacing 100,000+ | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

In Los Angeles, apocalyptic scenes of flames have engulfed the city. Firefighters in the area began to make progress against the fires today as the strong winds in the area have started to die down. Authorities lifted an evacuation order in the Hollywood Hills as flames grew close to the heart of the city. Close to 2,000 homes, businesses and structures have been destroyed thus far as more than 100,000 remain under evacuation orders. The fire has already become the most destructive in the history of Los Angeles. General Secretary of the Salvation Army, Anthony Barnes, joins to tell us how the Salvation Army is helping. He shares what the biggest priority is right now and what some of the biggest needs are. These fires have destroyed entire neighborhoods. Barnes discusses where all these people will go if they don't have families and friends to stay with and whether the Salvation Army is able to help them when it comes to shelter. He explains what will happen to people who lost everything and unfortunately did not have insurance on their homes anymore because it was cancelled. Barnes fills us in on what we can do to help. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
