Bring Them Home
Up in Flames
If you are like me, you know someone who lost their home this week. The ruin and heartbreak are difficult to imagine and many friends and loved ones remain in danger, with cars fueled and go-bags ready. We offer our sympathy and support as the Jewish community springs into action as the devastating Los Angeles-area fires widen.
Among other losses, a Pasadena synagogue burned down as fires rage across southern California "The Pasadena Jewish Center and Temple burned for hours as fire spilled out of the Eaton Canyon, fueled by strong winds. The 434-family congregation had operated from the Mission-style building, which had a wooden Torah ark carved by the Jewish artist Peter Krasnow, and three outbuildings since the 1940s. The congregation’s executive director told The New York Times overnight that everyone employed by the synagogue was safe. 'We are devastated, but our staff are safe and we managed to get our Torahs out safely as well, while ash was coming down in our parking lot,' said Melissa Levy."
Rabbi Nicole Guzik, based in Los Angeles, offers this prayer during the southern California fires 2025.
