Honeybee AC Helps Local Church After Robbery

May 21, 2015 - PRLog -- Honeybee AC, a Las Vegas-based HVAC services company, is dedicated to helping the community and in philanthropic endeavors.  This season, when it was brought to their attention that a local church congregation was enduring uncomfortable triple digit temperatures when worshipping, Honeybee AC acted fast to make a difference.

After thieves stripped the copper from their air conditioning units at small downtown church, Zion Holiness Last Trumpet Ministries, congregation members came to expect hot temperatures during their time of worship.  However, just in time for summer, church members can now expect to be more comfortable during mass partly due to Pastor Charles Allen’s new and unexpectedly friendship with Kenneth Goodrich of Honeybee AC.  Because of donations, a new 4-ton air conditioning unit was installed at the church. The donation came about after Allen, who makes a living shining shoes at the South Point, started talking to a customer about two months ago. The customer said he worked in air conditioning, and as the two chatted, Allen told him the church’s story.

Kenneth Goodrich runs a local company called Honeybee AC. He gave Allen his card and said he would keep an eye out for a used air conditioner to give the church. But eventually, Goodrich was able to get a new AC unit donated by manufacturer Goodman. The new unit would have cost about $8,700 with labor and permits. When the two met, Goodman told Allen, “I know what you’re going through,” explaining that he had heard of 14 units vandalized at one time. The church is planning to put cages around the new unit and the other ones to discourage thieves.

The heat was especially hard on seniors and children. The church cut back on choir rehearsals and moved kids’ Bible study to the main sanctuary.

Allen said they tried changing the Sunday service to 8 a.m., but it proved too early so it remained 11:30. When the heat wasn’t too bad, they’d keep the side doors open to get a breeze going, aided by fans. When Allen announced the new air conditioner to the congregation recently, some people didn’t seem to believe it. As he recalled, “They still kind of looked at me funny. Most people that are poor, you know; they’ve been promised a lot of things, and it didn’t happen,” Allen said.
