Description

Awakening to Wildfire: Stories of the Mendocino Lake Complex FireThe night of October 8, 2017, the wind howled, the land was arid, and humidity was low. At 11: 36 PM a spark from a downed power line hit dry vegetation and started a small fire. It grew into a raging, racing inferno that would consume a massive part of a small town in northern California. The fire would forever change the lives of the people of Redwood Valley and their neighbors in nearby communities. Nine lives were lost, and hundreds of structures

The night of October 8, 2017, the wind howled, the land was arid, and humidity was low. At
11:36 PM a spark from a downed power line hit dry vegetation and started a small fire. It grew
into a raging, racing inferno that would consume a massive part of a small town in northern
California. The fire would forever change the lives of the people of Redwood Valley and their
neighbors in nearby communities. Nine lives were lost, and hundreds of structures destroyed.
This became known as the Mendocino Lake Complex Fire, or Redwood Valley Fire.
During and following the fire, what stood out were peoples' stories of their escapes, sorrows,
miracles, and blessings: Friends lost; pets found; midnight drives on windy dirt roads through a
smoky haze; flowers blooming in the ash--everyone had a memory to share. Awakening to
Wildfire captures dozens of these stories and presents them to you in written and visual mediums.
Through this we hope to convey an idea of the magnitude and key moments of the fire, as well as
the strength, courage, and resilience of those who survived it.
Publication is made possible by funding from the Redwood Valley and Santa Rosa Community
Recovery Grant Program.

Rejuvenating
Format: Paperback
This book inspired me and helped me find a little joy when I was very drained by my full time job combined with mothering and homemaking.

Timely words for today’s culture
Format: Paperback
Debra Fileta's "Soul Care" is a great blend of faith-based principles and practical advice. I love how she explores the rhythms Jesus practiced to care for his soul as a framework for readers to follow. What sets Soul Care apart is her holistic approach to caring for ourselves. Debra Fileta addresses the spiritual, emotional, AND physical aspects (I love the title of chapter 7). Her tone is so easy to read, but the content is deep and thought provoking. Soul Care is helping me realize the need to establish healthier, more sustainable rhythms in my life and giving me answers for how to do that. As someone who served in ministry before, during, and after the Covid-19 pandemic, I’ve seen such a high burnout rate around me (and in my own life). This couldn’t be a more timely read. I want to give a copy to everyone I know!

Nice rack
I have a small bedroom and this over the door rack is great. Holds my belts, sweaters and jackets. Love the baskets for extra storage.
