Church Uses Drive-in Service as Outreach

A parking lot filled with cars at Westgate Assembly of God in Salem, Ore., is a good sign—even if no one is attending services inside.

 

The church has begun providing a drive-in service every Sunday morning in addition to its regular indoor service. Attendees receive free coffee and doughnuts and hear songs, testimonies and sermons without leaving their cars, trucks or vans.
