Karting for Christ Ministries

…the unseen story.

By Carol Gettys & Harrill Wiggins

 

Take any public movement, organization, club, business, association, or company and there is a story behind its evolution.  Wait, that’s not the right word - let me try that again.  Take any public movement, organization, club, business, association, or company and there is a story behind its creation… that’s better! If you don’t understand the relevance of the choice verbiage, I challenge you to read on… I think you will understand by the end of this story.

The seen… and the unseen…

 Now in its second year, Karting for Christ Ministries is definitely known around karting’s National circuits. Probably few local and regional racers have ever heard of this ministry due to the fact that the ministry focuses primarily on the WKA National events. Now that’s not to say that further expansion is not an option… let’s just say that those doors have not been opened yet. I’ll tell you more about what KFCM is today a little later, but for now let’s get into the real reason for this story.

Like I stated at the beginning, there is always a story behind the story.  Many, if not all of the racers who are aware of KFCM and attend the worship services know “the seen” part of the story, but few know “the unseen” part of the story.  Most of those who know “the seen” part are quick to give credit for starting KFCM to certain people… namely Mrs. Carol Gettys and myself.  Now, Mrs. Carol and I are going to tell “the unseen” part of the story… and you make your own mind up on who gets the credit for creating KFCM.

The story begins with Mrs. Carol Gettys… A Burdened Heart
