(Oct. 27, 4:00 PM EST)	As fires rage throughout the San Diego, San
Bernardino and Los Angeles areas, the Pacific Southwest District Office
of the Unitarian Universalist Association has launched a fire relief
fund.  The fund, to be administered through the PSW District, will
provide aid to affected congregations, their members and communities.  

UU congregations in a number of fire-affected communities are involved,
including Poway, San Diego, La Mesa, Montclair, Riverside, Santa Paula,
and Thousand Oaks.  In addition, the deBenneville Pines Camp and
Conference Center operated by the district, has been evacuated.  Margo
McKenna, minister of the Chalice UU Congregation in Poway, indicated
that "two members had lost homes, and possibly another four."  In
addition, McKenna said that "approximately twenty-five families have
been evacuated from the Scripps Ranch, Ramona, Escondido, and Poway
areas of San Diego."
