Keep watch, dear Lord ...

... with those who work, or watch, or weep this night ... and especially those who fight the wild fires here in California.

This really bad picture ...


... was taken a few minutes ago from the end our our street. It's the flames from the La Canada fire cresting the hills in the distance across the arroyo.

... and give your angels charge over those who sleep.Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake. Amen.
