Fueling the Mission

How Speed the Light Helped Fuel the Mission (and My Subaru)

They say you can’t put a price on a good adventure—but if you’ve ever driven a Subaru packed with photobooth props, adaptive equipment, and a suspicious number of Hershey chocolate bars, you know ministry on the move takes more than a full tank of gas.

Because of STL support, my Subaru has crisscrossed counties delivering supplies to camps for kids and adults with special needs—where 12 campers made first-time decisions to follow Jesus and 7 publicly declared their faith through baptism. Eternal impact… with cupholders full of glitter.

But the mission hasn’t stopped at camp. This hardworking Subaru has also
• picked up donations from local businesses,
• transported teams for food and clothing distributions,
• carried me to multiple meetings with team members,
• driven miles to meet and coach a PSOM student every month,
• and shown up faithfully at fundraiser after fundraiser with promotional materials and supplies.

There’s still graham crackers crushed in the backseat and probably a marshmallow stuck under the seat—but more importantly, this vehicle became a vessel for eternity.

Thank you, Speed the Light, for fueling far more than miles. You’re fueling ministry that lasts forever.
