A Christian drivers' ministry is gaining momentum in the UK, as numerous drivers continue to be reached with the message of the gospel through the organisation.

Glory Road Ministries is an outreach by Christian drivers to other drivers and their families in the road industry.

Although the ministry uses a range of different ways to support and share the Christian faith with truck drivers in the UK, one of the most effective has proved to be 'gift bags', with some 4000 given out to date.

Aside from goodies such as a tea bag, coffee sachet, sweetener, chewing gum and a chocolate bar, the bag contains a testimony from a Christian driver and a Christian tape, CD or book.

The Glory Road drivers find it a useful way to start a conversation with the drivers and introduce them to Christ in a short time.

Other truck drivers' ministries are involved in the movement of reaching to drivers, such as The Association of Christian Truckers Inc.

The Association of Christian Truckers, Inc. has had a vision and focus on impacting the world and 'have literally gone right out to the highways and byways to do it,' according to their website.

Other ministries include Man on the Road, Steering Wheel Ministries, and Truckers for Christ.
