Rally Car in Wisbech Market Place

The Christian Motor Sport Team team-up with The King's Church, Wisbech in Wisbech Market Place during 2013 Rose Fair Festival

 

A gloriously hot and sunny day greeted Paul Harvey from the Christian Motorsport Team and the gang from The King's Church, Wisbech. It was the Saturday of the Wisbech annual Rose Fair Festival. At 7am, the team were up and rearing to go, setting up the stand (complete with rally car) in Wisbech Market Place.

 

Once the stand was set up and the crowds descended for Wisbech's 50th annual Rose Fair many people stopped and had a look at the car, taking photos as well as being allowed to sit inside it and being able to chat with the driver. Many leaflets that explain how rally driving is like living a Christian life (including the gospel message) were taken by onlookers and passers by, as well as 1500 leaflets inviting people to come and get a 'taste' of what The King's Church, Wisbech is all about.

 

It was a fantastic opportunity for the church to get involved with the Rose Fair and made a big impact. It is very important for the church to be seen and to be heard, especially at events like this and this stand certainly achieved these aims.

 

If you saw the car at the Rose Fair, we would love to hear from you. Leave a comment in the 'comments' section below, visit our website www.kingswisbech.org.uk or come along to one of our other events. We would love to see you there and you would be most welcome!
