As you see from the displayed copy of the ARC business cards, Christ is the center of everything for us. 2 Cor. 5:17 says "If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature...behold all things have become new."
We enjoy our cars, but make God first in our lives and look forward to the day when this world as we know it will burn (including our cars!), and our Lord will create a earth made new. In the mean time we wish to discover ways to use our interest in cars to help introduce people to Christ. Some methods we have tried are:
Inviting other Christians and our non-Christian friends to join the club
Plan ARC functions that not only allow us to fellowship with each other, but also share our faith and talents with others at church services, particularly those out of the way places
Wear clothing with the club logo prominently displayed when driving our cars to outings
Helping stranded motorists on the highway, and leaving our ARC business card with them, giving the credit of our kindness to the Christ!
Open to all Christians, the club is sponsored by Seventh-day Adventist Christians who love cars. Because the Bible says it, we believe that...
