The Aspen Acres Fire near Beulah has now burned more than 28,000 acres and remains at zero containment. Homes and structures have been lost, families have been forced to evacuate, and smoke is filling the air near my home and across the state. People are being advised to stay indoors as the air quality worsens.
My heart is heavy for Beulah, one of my favorite places in Colorado, and for every person who has lost a home, a piece of land, a sense of safety, or everything they worked so hard to build. Please pray for the people, the livestock, the wildlife, the firefighters, and all the first responders working in dangerous conditions. Pray for protection, strength, comfort, and hope for everyone affected.
