On November 30, 2008, Martin Morenz produced a report titled Mobile Chapel Welcoming Truckers featuring our very own TFC Shrewsbury Chapel, located at Flynn's Truck Plaza (US 20 & MA 140). Watch the report online by clicking here.
Chaplain Jeff DeShaw explained during the interview, "Life on the road is rough and there’s a very high divorce rate, family problems…"
The truckers here say it gives them the opportunity to attend services while on the road and renew their relationship with God. "The church is, you know, just a building, but when we get together it’s really cool because we get to fellowship with one another and worship God together," says driver Sue Lillie. And trucker Carl Forney says, "It keeps me on the right side of the road and keeps my mind intact and keeps it civil. It keeps me close to the Lord, which is the most important thing."
You can contact Lead Chaplain George Freeman for more information via e-mail at gcfree@charter.net or by calling 508-757-1781.
