The INDYCAR Ministry and my Involvement

The Indy Car Ministry provides chapel services at each track where the Indy Car, Indy Lights, Pro Mazda Championship, and USF2000 series race. Chapel services include Christian music, Holy Communion, prayer, and a biblical message. We provide prayer and counseling support to drivers and team members. Bible studies are also provided at some of the race shops.

Miami Homestead Update!!!

The last race of the season always brings a wave of different emotions for everyone. Some are worried about a championship, some are worried about finishing the race, some are worried about their jobs in the off season, and some are even worried about getting paid at all. This weekend there were many conversations that ran the gamut. I had a father asking for prayer for his son that needed brain surgery, a crew member worried about his mother's immanent death, a crew chief wanting prayer for his decisions, a team wanting a sponsor to keep the doors open, and God being praised for His protection and blessings.

Most Indy Lights drivers were receptive to prayer before yesterday's race. Some of the Indy Car teams I prayed with today expressed their sincere appreciation that we pray with them before their races. Some still walked away. The food this weekend was donated to the Miami Community Outreach - stay tuned for year end totals!

I saw the IRL photographer for the first time since I took him to the airport in Richmond, Va. when his mother was taken to a hospital in Indiana. He immediately stood up and gave me a huge hug. He was able to spend a few hours with his mother before she passed. He was extremely grateful for the coordination efforts and prayerful support he received from the IRL Ministry that weekend. We sometimes don't always see how God works in all situations. Today, I saw firsthand how God worked in this man's life that day.

Thanks for all your prayers and support! Keep checking the blog for year end pics and food totals! God bless you all!
