Accelerating the Gospel
Our Mission
The mission of Righteous Rides is to further the spread of the gospel message of Jesus Christ by assisting evangelistic organizations in meeting their transportation needs. Our primary ministry is providing evangelical missionaries reliable automobiles for use during their trips home from the field.
Our Purpose
Evangelistic organizations have need for personal transportation. Missionaries have a temporary need for a dependable auto/van for use while home on deputation/furlough. These missionaries are faced with the challenge of finding reliable transportation, finding the additional funds needed to buy or rent it, and then trying to maintain it. When it is time to go back to the field, they have to sell it. There is a mountain of paperwork associated with this and it is extremely time consuming. All of this effort in managing their short term need for transportation is a challenge that takes their focus away from their ministry. The vision of Righteous Rides is to take that worry away from them. If flying into St. Louis or Dallas we will meet them at the airport when they arrive. We coordinate all of the paperwork and insurance for them in advance. We provide them 24 hour technical assistance should they encounter any problems. And, finally we help them organize their drop off at departure to make that effort hassle free. Missionaries have many places to go and a lot to accomplish during their short visit home, they shouldn’t have to be worried about how they are going to get there.
How can you help?
Maybe you have a car or van that you are considering trading in. You can donate that vehicle to Righteous Rides and receive a tax deduction for its full market value, and then go shopping for your new car without the hassle of negotiating on a trade-in. You will know that your donation is going to good use, because Righteous Rides will stay in contact with you, updating you periodically on how your donated vehicle is being used.
