LETTER FROM ALTADENA, CA CHURCH: Greetings to you from Altadena, in the name of Jesus! We have been overwhelmed this past week with the shock and devastation of high winds and uncontrolled fire that has wreaked havoc on our community. We are also overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and care and prayer and offers of support from across our land. Some of you have lived here, some of you have buried loved ones here, many of you have visited us. There are lots of memories of the joys and sorrows, of the worship and fellowship we’ve shared. We believe that God is sovereign, that nothing happens outside of His control and that to everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven. As our congregation has become smaller over the years, we have asked the Lord for insight as to what the future holds for our church. On Tuesday, driving up the hill through the confusion of disaster, passing block after block of smoldering ruins, I turned and was amazed at the sight…our church building, standing there, untouched. The sight took my breath away and moved me to a sense of deep humility and gratitude. Today, we are thankful to be here, for such a time as this. Right away our minds can go to restoring and rebuilding or blaming and politicizing. However, our community is full of precious souls, made in the image of God and our primary need is prayer. So we ask that you join us. Pray that hearts and marriages and relationships and lives can be reborn, repaired and restored by the grace of God. Pray that in the name of Jesus, we can carry on His ministry… to proclaim good news to the poor, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, and to comfort all who mourn. Pray that the Holy Spirit will help us know how to share the light and love and life of Christ with our hurting community. Also, pray with us for discernment on how to help address imminent material needs. HarvestCall has reached out and we are making a list of those with whom we have current relationships that have suffered loss and need assistance. Donations can be made to the HarvestCall Disaster Fund/Altadena. Love, grace and peace to you all, Tom Klotzle and the Altadena/Los Angeles church REPENTANCE ANNOUNCEMENT:  We are very excited to announce that Fiona Rocke has accepted the free gift of salvation and is seeking membership in our church. Fiona is the daughter of Bro. Adam and Sis. Maribeth. Please pray for Fiona as we know Satan hates a public confession of faith in Jesus!
