Want To Get Gas For Only $2.42 A Gallon Saturday?
16 05 2008North Point Church is going to be sponsoring a gas ministry to the community. 
No, they’re not giving mounds of baked beans to various neighborhoods but rather they’re going to be underwriting the cost of some gas for Springfield area motorists.
The church is paying to lower the cost of gas to $2.42 a gallon for 52 minutes on Saturday only. It happens starting at 10am at the Conoco at Chestnut Expressway and Benton Avenue in Springfield.
Now, why 52 minutes? According to someone I spoke with at North Point, the church has a program revolving around 52 unforgettable experiences (one per week) and this is part of that program the church is doing with it’s members. The reason it’s $2.42? Acts 2:42 (ESV): “And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.” So basically they’re just living out their faith in that people have a real burden on them with the high gas prices and they’re following the teachings of Christ to try and help with that burden.
There’s no limit to the amount of gas you can purchase but it is limited only to the vehicle in which you drive to the pump. (No extra containers.)
That’s fantastic! What a cool thing to do!
Jesus drives a hybrid.
NO, NO, NO!
Jesus drives a Plymouth. We are told this In Genesis: that God drove Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden in a Fury!
Even better. I heard he takes the bus.
Interesting idea.
