A Block Party for Fire Threatened Neighbors

Yesterday our church hosted a block party in the Westwood area next to our church. One of the great stories that came out of it was the way it touched the life of a fire fighter in our church. He was one of the speakers at the event. Along the way he connected with several neighbors whose homes he had helped save (see the photo of him embraced by grateful neighbors at the end of the video below). The healing was as much for him as for the community.

Sorry about the low quality on this video. Check out the high resolution version this Sunday at church.
