Why is my app throwing IllegalStateException GoogleApiClient is not connected yet?

java.lang.IllegalStateException: GoogleApiClient is not connected yet.

This is coming from my Service (GetInformationService.onConnected). It is weird how it says it is not connected in my onConnected method? I have seen many questions like this but I could still not figure it out because all of the answers say something about onCreate method but I have no onCreate since this is a service. Here is my relevant code (keep in mind I am extending IntentService):

@Override
protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent)
{
    g = Globals.getInstance();
    context = this;


    locationProvider = LocationServices.FusedLocationApi;
    googleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
            .addApi(LocationServices.API)
            .addConnectionCallbacks(this)
            .addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
            .build();

    locationRequest = new LocationRequest();
    locationRequest.setInterval(60000);
    locationRequest.setFastestInterval(15000);
    locationRequest.setPriority(LocationRequest.PRIORITY_HIGH_ACCURACY);

    googleApiClient.connect();
}


@Override
public void onConnected(Bundle bundle) 
{
    LocationServices.FusedLocationApi.requestLocationUpdates(googleApiClient, locationRequest, this);
}

Try including onCreate() in your service and build googApiClient from here

    @Override
public void onCreate() {
    super.onCreate();
    googleApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this)
        .addApi(LocationServices.API)
        .addConnectionCallbacks(this)
        .addOnConnectionFailedListener(this)
        .build();
    googleApiClient.connect();
      }
