Asking for Prayers

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 

Asking for prayers for our volunteer fire fighters, local ranchers and all of our hometown heroes as they fight a huge fire north of our little town.  The fire is large and the wind is blowing and the temps have been around 110.  There have been a lot of non-fire personal helping out by hauling water up to the area.  My husband and many of our friends are up there fighting right now.  We are currently waiting on water planes to make it out here to help.  So far our guys are keeping it on one side of the highway but you never know what mother nature will send our way

My dh is a volunteer firefighter, so this is an issue that's close to my heart.  I know how hard firefighters (paid or not) work; they are all heroes.  I hope the firefighters and the non-firefighters who are helping all stay safe and are able to put the fire out soon.

Thanks for all the prayers as they seemed to have worked!  They ended up with 30 firetrucks, at least 20 tractors w/discs, 2 road graders from the county and nobody got a count on the ranchers in pickups with watertanks in the back.  Our temperatures have been in the hundreds the past couple of weeks with no rain in sight.  We haven't mowed our lawn in almost a month as it hasn't grown and is brown.  Local ranchers are having to sell cattle already as they are out of grass.  It isn't a pretty sight here in western South Dakota.  No green to be seen anywhere.  I know of one rancher who only got 11 round bales of hay put up for the season.
