Santa Barbara County Unveils New Storm Evacuation Definitions, Evacuation Timeline and Interactive Map
Montecito, Other South County Areas Should Be On Alert: New Evacuation Information
Santa Barbara County issued new new storm evacuation definitions, a 72-hour storm evacuation timeline, and an interactive map this past week. We encourage everyone in Montecito, Summerland, Carpinteria, Goleta and unincorporated areas near recent burn areas to be on heightened alert, especially as rain may be approaching this week.

Emergency officials reiterated that the threat following the Jan. 9 debris flow is not over. There is a heightened danger for those who live below the Thomas Fire burn area due to the damaged condition of the watershed. Experts say that as a result, it will now take less rainfall to move debris.

Here are links to the various materials that we all must review and actively monitor. As our emergency managers said, "Don't be scared, be prepared."
This interactive map allows you to enter your address to determine where you live relative to evacuation zones. Click image to go to webpage.

Parishioners Step Up to Help One Another, Our Community; More Volunteers Still Needed
Many of our parish and Parish School families and our immediate neighbors have been directly impacted by the mud/debris flows that hit Montecito on Jan. 9. Community volunteers and parishioners have come with shovels in hand and equipment to help dig out mud, personal belongings, and more. 

All Saints has supported these efforts and continues to do so; we now turn our attention to supporting Voluntary Organizations Active in Disasters (VOAD). Just like the Santa Barbara Bucket Brigade, VOAD is helping organize support .  

All Saints parishioners and Parish School families are asked to call, email or sign-up at the information below to assist:
