Smoke rises from the ashes of the Malibu Presbyterian Church late into the night in Malibu, Calif., on Sunday, Oct. 21, 2007. Nearly a dozen wildfires driven by powerful Santa Ana winds spread across Southern California on Sunday, killing one person near San Diego, destroying several homes and a church in celebrity-laden Malibu, and forcing hundreds from their homes.
