Springfield, IL – The WDRA is proud to announce a new alliance with God Speed Ministry. God Speed Ministry was founded in May of 2004 as an organization of ‘racers ministering to racers.’ God Speed Ministry has grown from serving one organization to serving eight series in North America. They cover drag races, road races, swap meets, car shows and other outdoor events across the US and Canada. God Speed Ministry seeks to provide spiritual nourishment and growth to the participants, fans and sponsors at these events with non-denominational ministry, emergency response, outreach, speakers/services, and more.
“We want to publicly welcome God Speed Ministry to the WDRA family,” said WDRA founder Don Scott. “God Speed Ministry brings the church to events and connects people to God and each other. Their highly skilled and compassionate chaplains deliver sermons before races as well as pray for and with racers throughout the event. This is an important part of our Bracket Finals, World Championship and any WDRA managed event we do.”
“We are thrilled by the opportunity to serve the World Drag Racing Alliance, their tracks, partners, and racers. God Speed Ministry is proud to be part of the energy and vision of WDRA,” said Renee Bingham. “We have great relationships with so many of the WDRA tracks with whom we have ministered through the years. We are thrilled to be able to continue that relationship and to build relationships in new tracks and racers. We pray the blessing of God upon WDRA, their tracks, racers and partners. Proverbs 10:22 says, ‘The blessing of the Lord brings wealth, and He adds no trouble to it.’ We speak that over the WDRA.”
