Welcome to the Get in the Car Missions Website

Since January 2006, we have been reaching out into world for Jesus Christ through local, national, and international missions. If you are interested becoming a volunteer or donor, please feel free to contact us.

Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing. --1 Thessalonians 5: 11

OUR MISSION: Get In The Car is a “construction” relief effort reaching out to those in need who have been affected by life changing events of all types. The relief effort includes many facets from listening ears to swinging hammers. Working hard to be the hands and feet of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we have answered the call to rebuild homes and reconstruct lives at local, national, and international levels.

The only skill truly needed is a patient, 
heart that is willing to GET IN THE CAR!

Leaving Michigan on a beautiful morning in March, the excitement level of the Get In The Car 4 Mission Team could not be higher.  We gathered in the Fellowship Hall at New Hope UMC to take the first step in our 1100 mile journey to the Gulf Coast, more specifically, Slidell, LA.

...Continued.

On Sunday, the Get In The Car 4 Team gathered with the people of Franklin FUMC for worship as three team members got off to an early start headed for Mobile, AL to pick-up the reamaining team member who was meeting them there from Florida.  A brief stop (way to brief) in Gautier, MS to visit friends at FUMC Gautier (Pastor Ron and Marsha We LOVE you) and into Slidell where the rest of the team joined them within the hour.

FEARING THE UNKNOWN

Fear of the unknown is a hard thin to accept.  "Get In The Car", you say?  What a leapp of faith those words have.  Pack your stuff and go to an unknown state and town, travel with people you do not know to work on homes of strangers.  Without trust in God, this seems crazy.

A GLIMPSE

The day was overwhelming (a paragraph from a Get In The Car team member) there was a lot to takein.  We went down to New Orleans to see the destruction.  I really do think that God sent these peopl a wake up call and we were the ones who answered that call.  I really don't know if He was mad of just doing what He is supposed to do, sending people down here to answer the call.  I know this team has done a lot in the last three days, we have had miracles walk into our lives and friendships built on this trip.

Team and Individual Membership

At home we are generally wholly, and holy, self sufficient; some of us in small comfortable groups, some of us alone. (a story from one of the team)

Touched

Through this week we have all seen one blessing after another, some were smaller than others.  To wrap this week up in one word it would be "touched".
