We know everyone in the community has felt the heaviness of the last two weeks leading up to SSG Nate Howard’s services today. We greatly appreciate all those who came out to show their support today and all those who did so through prayer, condolences, acts of kindness and in thoughtful reflection from the comfort of their homes.

We are diligently working on the recording of services for those who were unable to attend. Your patience in this process is much appreciated. We will post an update when the video is on our website, and in the meantime, please continue to keep Nate’s family in your thoughts and prayers.

🚨 Shelter Crisis Alert: ARL of Marshalltown at Capacity 🚨
Due to an overwhelming surge in animal intake—including a hoarding case involving 12 dogs and 9 cats found abandoned roadside—we’ve reached full capacity. This, combined with peak kitten season, has led to a heartbreaking decision: we must temporarily suspend all non-emergency intakes until further notice.
To manage this crisis, we've activated our Emergency Room, a space typically reserved for natural disasters or large-scale emergencies.
💔 We understand how difficult this is, but our priority is to ensure every animal currently in our care receives safe shelter, food, and medical attention.
How you can help right now:
• Donate supplies (Check out our Wishlist QR Codes)
• Sponsor an animal's care
• Consider fostering to open up critical space
• Share this post to help spread the word
• Volunteer at the shelter with daily tasks
We remain committed to our mission and community, and we’ll provide updates as the situation evolves. Thank you for your compassion and support—we can’t do this without you. ❤️
