~ VISION ~
1. To have 18-wheel mobile chapels “floating” to truck stops. Our focus is on both large and small truck stops because there are truck drivers who prefer smaller truck stops and they need the Gospel of Jesus Christ too.
* Have one 18-wheel chapel that will operate on Highway 97 from Klamath Falls, Oregon up into central and eastern Washington and into Idaho. Another 18-wheel chapel to operate on I-5 up into western Washington and south into California.
* To have a mobile stage with a tent canopy, with removable sides, to go to truck stops, and where ever else we can sing and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. (“Old time” tent revivals).
2. To have a Trucker's Christian Center on I-5 complete with a chapel, 24-hour restaurant or deli, showers and laundry would be good. A chaplain will be on the grounds 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
3. To have full time chapels in only a couple of truck stops – God said this is not to be our main focus.
God told Merwin as long as we are obedient to Him and get these chapels out on the road He will provide the fuel, maintenance, license, insurance and every thing else it takes to keep them on the road.
~ MEETING THE GOALS ~
1. We have the 48-foot trailer we are converting into the mobile chapel. The job is still getting done. We have the truck tractor to pull it with.
2. Another trailer has been given to us and we are looking at it to be converted into the mobile stage.
3. We still need the property for the Trucker's Christian Center.
4. It takes money above normal ministry operating expense to get and keep these projects in operation.
Please pray about what God may want you to do to help us meet these goals and keep this vision God has given Steering Wheel Ministries going.
Yours in Christ's service,
