Recent wildfires in Los Angeles have caused significant destruction, demolishing numerous houses of worship and leaving many communities in despair. Historic synagogues, including a Jewish temple in Pasadena built over 80 years ago, have been reduced to ashes, while clergy and congregants from various faiths vow to persevere despite the losses. Star residents such as Paris Hilton and Mandy Moore also faced the devastation, with some losing their homes. While the fires rage on, Jewish communities are rallying to support each other, providing critical aid, and continuing their religious practices amidst the chaos. The situation has prompted calls for action to combat climate change and to rebuild what has been lost. Organizations like the Jewish Federation of Greater Portland and B’nai B’rith have initiated relief efforts, highlighting a collective response to the crisis.
