Fire burns near Yosemite National Park, Calif. (AP Photo)Firefighters in 
California braced for another rough day Sunday in their efforts to gain 
ground on a wildfire that has burned its way into Yosemite National 
Park.Strong winds, some of which could reach speeds of between 30 and 
40 miles per hour, could push the raging fire further into the 
northwest edge of the park, threatening thousands of rural homes. More than 
5,500 homes are already threatened and at least four have been destroyed.Meanwhile, 
park officials are clearing brush and setting sprinklers to protect two 
groves of giant sequoias. The iconic trees can resist fire, but dry 
conditions and heavy brush are forcing extra precautions to be taken in 
the Tuolumne and Merced groves. About three dozen of the giant trees 
are affected."All of the plants and trees in Yosemite are important, but 
the giant sequoias are incredibly important both for what they are and 
as symbols of the National Park System," park spokesman Scott Gediman told 
the Associated Press Saturday.The trees grow naturally only on the western 
slopes of the Sierra Nevada and are among the largest and oldest 
living things on earth.The Tuolumne and Merced groves are in the north 
end of the park near Crane Flat. While the Rim Fire is 
still some distance away, park employees and trail crews are not taking 
any chances.Jessica Sanderson said one of her rel
ure of persecution has increased due 
to the growth of Islam in the region.The relief effort will cost 
about $120,000, with funding coming from private donations. Many of those 
waiting to be air lifted out in the coming weeks have had 
to endure a high rain season in refugee-like tent cities in the 
Khartoum region.Since the South Sudan gained independence in July 2011, 
Christians and churches in Sudan have faced increasing aggression. Church 
leaders have been threatened, arrested and abducted, and many Christian 
buildings and house of worship destroyed. In April 2012, a church and 
Bible school also in Khartoum was burned to the ground by an 
Islamist mob, and in June another church there was bulldozed by local 
authorities.
