MSY Hub

Slidell, LA

Hub Coordinators: Bret and Tina Byus

What is unique about your hub?

 

We are unique in that one of the co-founders of the ministry and his wife, serve on staff with Righteous Rides yet live in the New Orleans area, 700 miles from headquarters.  We not only serve on staff but we’re one of the 11 outside hubs serving missionaries from our driveways.  This helps us to be able to encourage and assist the outside hub teams with needs and questions they may have.

We’re also unique in that over the past 6 years we’ve received a grant from Baptist Community Ministries to assist in purchasing vehicles for our hub. Over the years the entire Righteous Rides fleet has been made up of Chrysler minivans which are no longer being built.  With monies from the grant we’re purchasing the next generation of vehicles, the Chrysler Voyager and Chrysler Pacifica, for the New Orleans hub.

Not unique, but we have to mention…we have a fabulous team of faithful volunteers serving missionaries with a little southern hospitality when picking up and returning their Righteous Rides van.

How could a volunteer help at your hub?

We are always in need of items to fill goody bags for boys and girls, from birth to young adulthood.  We’d love to have someone take full responsibility for the goody bag ministry.  We have a lady who loves to prep the bags with the kid’s initials, but we’d love to have someone responsible to fill the bags with goodies from our goody bag closet. What a blessing these bags are for missionary kids when they arrive and hop in their RRides van!!

 

What are your prayer requests?

Pray we’ll be an encouragement to missionaries coming into our area!
