Firetrucks Refilling

Firefighters refilling firetructs with Temple complex water

A fire broke on the neighborhood along the Gorordo Highway near the Temple Complex on Dec 26. The Temple provided water refilling to  the firetrucks so it can return quick to the fire scene and prevent the fire to spread and cause more damage. The whole stretch of the highway from the Temple to the fire area was cordoned by authorities to sped up the firefighting and keep people out from harms way. http://www.mormonnewsroom.ph/article/lds-church-assists-firemen-refills-firetrucks
