Would you like salvation with that?
From 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. tonight and every Wednesday through April, the Estero United Methodist Church is offering a novel service to Southwest Florida residents: Drive-through prayer.
The idea behind drive-through prayer is to offer spiritual support to folks not attached to our church community, said the Rev. John Halley, 30, a recent transplant from Los Angeles whos been in his post for 10 weeks. Were on a visible part of U.S. 41, and this is one way to put ourselves out there and to give folks the opportunity to come by and receive the blessing of prayer.
Church member and lay leader Pam Sebby said no one is quite sure how the idea originated, but that it may have come from the Internet.
From what I understand, other churches have done it, so it may have filtered through the pipeline, she said. We did it a few years ago, but there was so much construction on U.S. 41 that we didnt feel safe. We started it back up in the first part of February, and well do it through April every year.
Halley said the drive-through prayer is simply a service, not an enticement to join the church that boasts about 1,100 members during season.
Its not a church-growth strategy for us; its really just an outreach to share Gods love with our community, he said.
Both Sebby and Halley said the success of the service varies from week to week.
Our group has been out there five weeks now and in terms of people stopping (to pray), we might get five or six one week, three another week; a couple weeks we didnt get anyone, Halley said.
Sebby said the most people she can remember stopping to pray is about eight, but that number doesnt cover the actual number of prayers offered.

(03-12) 09:52 PDT SAN FRANCISCO -- Hundreds of Mission Bay apartment dwellers chased from their homes by a huge fire at a building under construction are fortunate to have homes to return to, San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee said Wednesday as firefighters put out hot spots and sought to determine whether welders caused the blaze.
"We're very lucky" that firefighters were able to contain the five-alarm blaze to the building that burned at Fourth and China Basin streets Tuesday, Lee said as firefighters sprayed water on the remains of the six-story, 80-foot-tall structure.
The fire broke out about 5 p.m. and quickly consumed the building, an apartment complex being built by Suffolk Construction Co. that was supposed to open late this year. Smoke that billowed thousands of feet into the air was visible around the Bay Area.
The cause of the fire is not known, though Lee, speaking at a news conference Wednesday morning after touring the site, said construction workers had been welding in the area where the fire is thought to have started.
"It appears that the fire started above ground," Lee said. "They were doing some welding. We don't know what occurred there. I'll be very patient to wait until the investigation is concluded by our Fire Department and by the contractors themselves."
Most of the workers had left for the day before the blaze began, and investigators suspect that the fire could have smoldered for some time before erupting, said Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White.
The chief said the fire had presented "unique challenges," because the building's sprinklers and other fire-suppression systems had not yet been installed. Half of the Fire Department's on-duty firefighters battled the blaze, she said.
"Our objective last night was to contain the fire to the building of origin," Hayes-White said. "Crews did a phenomenal job."
Lee added, "People will say the city responded well, and our Fire Department deserves some kudos on this."
Blowing embers did briefly ignite a small fire on the roof of a UCSF building about a block away. That fire was quickly put out by building maintenance workers.

San Francisco --
A fast-moving fire that consumed a large apartment building under construction in San Francisco's Mission Bay neighborhood burned into the night Tuesday, but firefighters were able to keep the blaze from spreading to nearby structures.
The five-alarm fire engulfed the building on Fourth Street near China Basin Street just before 5 p.m., sending black smoke thousands of feet into the sky. Scaffolding melted as chunks of the six-story, 80-foot-tall building fell away. Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White called it the city's largest blaze in several years.
Fire officials said the structure was likely to collapse.
"The open construction of the building allowed for rapid fire spread," said fire Capt. Matthew McNaughton, adding that investigators have not determined what started the blaze.
Nearby buildings were evacuated as more than 150 firefighters battled the flames, using about 90 fire trucks and other apparatuses. The roof of UCSF's Mission Bay research building, a block away, briefly caught fire, but it was quickly put out, McNaughton said.
One firefighter suffered minor burns, he said, but there were no other injuries.
The smoke "was like a huge mushroom cloud. It was as high as a plane," said Gary "Slim" Forte, 38, who was among a large crowd of locals watching the fire. "It looked like somebody blew a nuclear weapon."
Several dozen residents were evacuated from the Strata apartment building across Fourth Street from the construction site, and about 25 were gathered late Tuesday at an American Red Cross evacuation center at Pier 54.
Firefighters still had not contained the blaze by 10:15 p.m. McNaughton said he expected crews to remain on scene until the morning. "We have a center core that looks like a volcano," he said.

SAN FRANCISCOSan Francisco fire investigators on Wednesday were looking into whether welding work was to blame for a massive blaze that barreled through an apartment building construction site, threatening nearby buildings, prompting evacuations and forcing officials to call in about half the city's on-duty firefighters to prevent its spread.
As fire crews doused hotspots in the charred remains of the block-long apartment complex, city officials said they narrowly avoided a catastrophe in an up-and-coming neighborhood near the San Francisco Giants ballpark.
"I think we're very lucky that the fire didn't jump anymore," Mayor Ed Lee said.
The exact cause of the fireone of the city's largest in recent yearswas under investigation, but fire officials were looking into preliminary reports that workers were doing torch work at the site shortly before the fire was reported around 5 p.m. Tuesday, Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White said.
The five-alarm fire created a plume of black smoke that was visible for miles and led to the evacuation of nearby buildings, as more than 150 firefighters were called in to contain it. One of the walls of the burning building collapsed about an hour after the fire began.
The blaze also cracked windows on an apartment building, Strata at Mission Bay, across the street and sent an ember onto the roof of a University of California, San Francisco building in the neighborhood. Two firefighter suffered minor injuries.
The fire was fueled by wood frames and other materials at the site, Hayes-White said. Since it was under construction, the building also had no fire suppression systems.
"Our objective last night, which we were able to achieve, was to contain (the fire) to the building of origin," she said.
Fire officials did not have an exact estimate on the damage on Wednesday, but said the entire six-story building was considered a loss.
The Strata apartment building remained evacuated on Wednesday.

SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) It was a long night for San Francisco firefighters who remained at the scene early Wednesday and continued to pour water on the firein Mission Bay that destroyed a large under-construction apartment building Tuesday evening.
The project on the west side of Fourth Street between China Basin and Mission Rock, near AT&T Park, is expected to be a total loss. Officials said the structure would likely fully collapse on its own, but a contractor has been called in to develop a plan to safely take down the building. There is no timeline for that project, and a perimeter will be kept up around the building indefinitely.
On Wednesday, occasional flames were visible through a fine curtain of mist created by the water blowing in wind along with falling debris and shards of glass on Fourth Street.
San Francisco Deputy Fire Chief Mark Gonzales said the building had partially collapsed on itself, but that there was concern about the scaffolding on the outside coming down as well. Some residents in surrounding buildings were still under evacuation orders because those buildings do not have fire protection in them. An estimated 30 units will be uninhabitable for an indefinite amount of time.

Some of those buildings on the Fourth Street, their exterior sprinklers were activated during the fire, so we cant get in there to replace them, Gonzalez said. A lot fire protection is off in those buildings.
San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee said at a news conference at the scene Wednesday morning that the cause of the fire remains under investigation, but noted that it started above ground.
They were doing some welding, we dont know what occurred there, Lee said.
