Race Weekend

3/1/2011

Yet another blessing of being in Ft. Myers with the Weinmans was being there for their church's missions conference.  We heard many testimonies from different ministries in the area that New Life Presbyterian is in involved with.    For example it was great to hear about what God is doing through Young Life in Ft. Myers.  We also met Stephen and Stephanie Zoeller, who are race track chaplains for the SCCA (Sports Car Club of America).  We ended up joining them at Sebring Raceway for the Porsche Club races one February weekend.  We parked Buster right there at the reacetrack.  The racetrack chaplains put on a chapel service and generally meet and minister to people at the tracks. It was a great experience (kinda loud) but fun.  I helped with the singing portion of the worship service and Joe was a big help to Stephen setting up, etc.

One event that Zoeller Ministries puts on is "Kids Racing For Life".  This huge event brings kids with terminal illness along with their families, to a race track for a fun filled weekend of ride alongs, meet and greets and ministry.  We would love to be able to participate in one of these weekends!   God was so good to show us these sweet people who are investing their talents in things of eternal value.  (Yes, that's Max behind the wheel)

This 2012 Prevost was parked right next to us at the track. Emily reminded us that it's what's on the INSIDE that counts! Although I'm pretty sure it's insides were as fantastic as the outside.
