YWAM Brisbane runners have laced up their sneakers and hit the road with the first leg of the Pass It On Tour at the end of May.
It is an ambitious and exciting mission which YWAM is embarking on for the next year in Australia as they run God’s
truth across the entire Western world!
The first official stop for the Pass It OnTour was Gatton, in Queensland’s Lockyer Valley. Then the B2B DTS, Sports DTS and Go Teams headed to Laidley and Pittsworth before passing on the baton in the next leg. In each town, YWAMers teach in schools about the foundational values from the Bible (provided by Bible League International Australia), about the importance of families and the importance of fathers. Not only that, but they will deliver a Bible to every home in the communities through which they travel. A baton from the elders in one town will be handed over to the youth in the next as a symbol of passing on God’s wisdom from generation-to-generation.
Already, 16 runners representing six different nations ran from Brisbane through the Lockyer Valley and up to Toowoomba leading up to Easterfest 2012 – Australia’s largest Christian music festival. There, YWAM Brisbane Base Director, Dave Neibling was able to share the vision of the Tour at the festival mainstage in April.
The Pass It OnTour is just the beginning… so for more on the future of the run, for all the updates from the road and for ways in how you can get involved check out the Tour website gopassiton.org.
