About a year and a half ago, as we were praying about how we could help impact the city of Keller and surrounding cities for the gospel, The Lord gave us the idea of having a truck that we could use as a charity to the city. (Note: The Well Church is a church that is seeking to live a Life with Christ, a Life in Community and a Life of Charity. We define a Life of Charity as "showing the generous love of Jesus Christ through word and deed in our community and around the world.") Before we knew it, Frito-Lay had agreed to donate a 20-ft long delivery truck to us. (Yes, you read that correctly, DONATE... as in FOR FREE) How Awesome is God, right?
From there we began researching truck wrapping companies in the DFW area. One of our leadership team members found a company in Plano, that was willing to give us a 50% discount on wrapping the entire truck. The owners were Christians and they wanted to bless us, because they loved the mission and vision for the truck and the mission of our church. Therefore, once Frito-Lay released the truck to us, we took the truck directly to Plano to get wrapped. A few weeks later the truck was ready. When the owners of the truck wrapping company contacted us, they said, "Because we love your church, we feel like God wants us to donate our work to you..." (Yes, you read that correctly... DONATE... as in FOR FREE).Again...God is so amazing, isn't He? This was another confirmation for us, that this was GOD'S TRUCK.
Now, to answer the question that many of you have been asking, we will use this truck to show the generous love of Jesus Christ through word and deed to our community. In fact, this past Sunday we delivered thanksgiving baskets to deserving friends in Keller.
In December, we will have a Gift Drive, donating toys, books and clothes to deserving families in the Keller/ North Tarrant County area.
We will give away coats in the winter, new socks in the spring, ice cream and popsicles to children in the summer. Ultimately whatever opportunities GOD gives us to be the hands and feet of His son Jesus we will take advantage of.
Join us in celebrating the amazing work of Jesus! For more information about the well, and how you can help us, please visit our website to learn more www.thewellchurchkeller.org/thewelltruck
