We’ve received word that Westmont College has been affected by wildfires rushing through Santa Barbara. A number of secondary buildings have been destroyed. Thankfully, there are no reports of human injury or death on the campus. Here’s a link to information posted on CTI’s site: http://blog.christianitytoday.com/ctliveblog/archives/2008/11/fire_destroys_p.html

Our co-blogger Tremper Longman teaches at Westmont. I tried to reach him this morning, but so far I have not been able to connect with him. Please pray for wisdom for the college administrators as they wrestle with the implications of this campus tragedy.
