A church pastor opened up his home Wednesday night to the congregation that lost its church to a fire.
For the congregation at Iglesia de Dios Eben-ezer in Oak Cliff, the service was a little different.
They worshiped in their pastor’s living room.
“It concerns me because we don't have the place now and I tried to look everywhere, and I can't find (one),” said Pastor Jose Reyes.
The church in the 800 block of South Tyler Street burned early Wednesday morning and members immediately scrambled to find a place to worship.
Reyes says investigators told him a short circuit might have caused the fire that damaged most of the interior of the church.
More than a dozen members piled into Reyes living room to hear the sermon on hardship. Reyes says his members will overcome the setback.
