We spent a whole day with St Saviours Church with the bus being open to visitors through the day and then for teenagers attending an event in the evening. We had a steady flow of people on the bus through the day and there were some great conversations going on. The evening event went really well with the bus being well used for discussions on faith. What was really encouraging for me was to see the folks from the church so involved in conversations and excited about it.
Rev Louise Williams writes-
"Thank you so much for supporting our mission week on Tuesday with the provision of the Route One bus. We were absolutely thrilled to see that all the youngsters in the evening went on the bus – and of their own accord – that was very encouraging. Thank you also for the training which you provided – we all found that most helpful."
YMCA visit @ Leigh Road Baptist Church
A group from Southend YMCA came to visit us at Leigh Rd Baptist Church. The evening was designed to communicate both the message of Christianity and what church is. The bus worked really well as the venue for the “message” part of this while a tour of the church building provided a fitting environment to talk about Church. David Elcock and a group of young people from the church did a great job of communicating their faith both on the bus and in the building. Below is a comment from David about the event.
"Thank you so much for bringing the bus over to LRBC on Thursday for the YMCA event. It is such a fantastic resource and the way that it engages not only the onlooker but also equips the young people to speak about and expand upon the Bible is so great."
