22 Apr Why We Love Working with Church Groups
When you look at any organization and assess it, you can likely identify strengths that it has and things that you like about it. In the motorcoach business, we interact with many different people across many industries. Sometimes we transport military men and women, and other times we take a group of high schoolers to prom. Sometimes we are getting an entire wedding party to a rehearsal dinner, and sometimes we are with a group of friends taking a wine tour. We interact with businessmen and women, families, youth groups, sports teams, and hotels to provide shuttle services. We enjoy different things from each of these experiences, and it’s a privilege to be a part of people’s lives.
When it comes to church congregations, we like to assist in many ways. It is enjoyable for us whether we get to transport the choir to a singing engagement, be the wheels behind a service project, or help your youth get to a scouting jamboree! While there are many reasons one could admire and appreciate what church communities do, we want to show you why we love working with church groups!
For starters, church groups tend to foster a sense of community and friendship. As people come together regularly for worship and activities, strong bonds develop over time. You often end up with a group of people who share a system of beliefs and deeply care for each other. This is a beautiful thing and something we have been blessed to witness as we work with various church congregations.
Another reason why we love working with church groups is they are typically anxious to serve wherever they can. These people are serious about helping each other out and doing a good turn. From volunteering in soup kitchens to visiting members of their congregation that are sick, serving is a way that people extend love and kindness to each other, and it’s just another way that faith is manifest, too.
Being a church organization member opens up opportunities to discuss what you believe with others. We think this is a positive thing because it creates moments where people are invited to think critically about why they do what they do and examine the reasons behind it. It prompts members to ask big questions, engage with others, and talk about ideas and philosophies.
Churches get involved in their communities—something that benefits all of us. Maybe you can remember attending a Bach passion in a cathedral that was put on by the cathedral choir for the public, or the way another church hosted a classical music festival every week for several months. Maybe you can attend choir concerts that are open to the public or other arts and cultural events that churches have sponsored and participated in. These are just a few examples of how churches try to reach out and engage with the community in meaningful ways.
Lastly, we admire the humanitarian aid and assistance that church organizations spearhead. When there is a large group of people committed to a good cause, amazing things can happen. It is inspiring to watch how church groups rally and give support in circumstances where there is a true need, and we love witnessing things like that.
It is a true privilege for us whenever we can engage with church groups. So, we’d love to take care of it when you have a congregational transportation need. Our focus is to provide you with the best service available and make it comfortable and convenient for everyone.
