High Forest Fire Risk

Many regions of our province are experiencing high temperatures and a lack of rain.  As happens every summer, these conditions result in extreme forest fire hazards.  As of this writing, there is a fire in the Lillooet area that is causing great concern because of the terrain.  There is also the possibility of thunderstorms through the Interior later today.  Please pray with us that those who are fighting fires will be kept safe, that no property damage will result from any fires currently burning and that the expected thunderstorms later today will bring only much needed rain.

Heavenly Father, You rule over the weather and it is subject to Your command.  Lord you know that it is very hot and dry in many parts of our province.  While we enjoy the summer weather, we also recognize that the forests are very dry and the fire hazard is extreme.  We ask today that you will protect our forests and spare us from serious fires at this time.  We pray that the expected storms in the Interior this afternoon and evening will only bring much needed rain. 

We ask this in Jesus Name, Amen
