I finally saw the aftermath in Altadena, and once again was shocked to see how bad it is. 

I’ve now seen unimaginable destruction in the Pacific Palisades, Malibu and Altadena and my heart hurts for everyone impacted by the fires. So many homes, so many businesses, churches and schools. 

I pray they somehow find comfort. I pray they eventually find peace. And I pray they find hope. To those who lost a loved one, I pray for you as well. I pray for you as well. Lord hear our prayers.🙏🏽
