Members of one Mobile County Church will have to find another place to worship.
Prichard fire officials say an electrical fire claimed about 65 percent of the Spiritual Impact Family Worship Church Tuesday night. Officials believe a faulty outlet attached to the church's sanctuary is to blame.

Bishop Abraham Wright says the 50 member congregation has been renting the space since July.
While they'll have to find another place to hold services, he is glad noone was inside when the fire broke out.
"It could've happened while we were in church Sunday night you know. But God was faithful in that he allowed us the opportunity not to be here,"Said Wright.

Bishop Wright hopes to find a temporary place to hold services by Sunday.
In the meantime he says they will need help. To find out how you can get involved call 251-340-6573.
