Hand of God steered fire past residents

This is an article written in the LA Daily news in reference to the fires that caused our bases evacuation....amazing!! 


"As 125 homeless women and children fled Hope Gardens early Sunday while a towering wall of wind-fueled flames swept down Lopez Canyon, the blaze suddenly changed course and veered around the rustic facility leaving a green oasis in the midst of charred landscape.  "The fire captain told me the fire was coming down the hill, burning hot and high, and out of nowhere, it suddenly turned and went around our facility," Hope Gardens Chief Operating Officer Scott Johnson said. " They have no idea why.  We call it the hand of God."
