TEMPLE, Texas — Trinity Church of Temple will offer a daily drive-thru prayer service until further notice.
"There is so much fear and stuff so I thought well maybe just do like a drive-thru prayer thing," Cheryl Fausnacht said.
The church said the "prayer line" would go from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday-Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
"Beyond the numbers, it's the quality and the opportunities we've had have been very unique and I know they have been very meaningful to the people who have received the prayers so that makes it worthwhile," Pastor Ed Dowell said.
They were also looking for volunteers to help with the prayers.
"You know our hope and our trust in him and our faith in him and his word is really you know what provides us not the immediate need, but also for the long term need. we're in this for the long haul to help people. You know the answer is Jesus," Dowell said.
The church hasn't been holding in-house services since the spread of the coronavirus.
Pastor Ed Dowell said they would not be holding services in order to follow the guidelines put forth by Bell County Judge David Blackburn that requires no gatherings of 50 people in one place.
