LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Volunteers at "From His Throne Ministries" say the hot temperatures are making it almost impossible for people in need to walk to the church to eat a hot meal.
To make things worse, the van the organization uses to give people rides is out of service due to a flat tire.
The group says it needs now donations more than ever.
“We're a very small church and struggling to keep the doors open as it is, but now, in addition to that, we're down transportation, which makes it harder for people in this tremendous heat to make it back and forth to receive the meals they so desperately need,” Pastor Joseph Malat said.
Pastor Malat says the heat is also driving up the electric bill and the church is spending more money on bottled water.
Anyone who wants to donate can stop by the church or mail donations to 2501 S. Arch Street Little Rock, Arkansas 72206.
