God Is Working

We have noticed that we have had a lot more opportunities to witness this year than ever before. In the local runs, we have been able to invite those we meet to our services. We have had more visitors this year in our services. We have also seen more opportunities to be a testimony at the ABATE meetings and runs. We are praying that God will use us this year to lead more bikers to Him and help those who are saved to have that personal relationship with Christ. Make this a matter of prayer.

Banquet

I believe that this year's was one of our best banquets. God worked in many hearts in so many ways. We saw God work in people who were convicted about trusting in God, to those who see that this is a God led ministry. We gained two more monthly supporters, and some who want to sponsor a table for next year and then fill it. Several others told us that they plan in the near future to start giving.

We did not meet our goal of $10,690.00.

This year, people who could not come to the banquet, sent money in for the banquet. This has never happened before, so if you feel led by God to give to meet this need, even though you could not be at the banquet, please send your gift to the address below and write on the check (banquet). You can also go to our website and give through there. If God will bless us through your giving, we would be able to make up the $4,852.95 that was not received this year.

Cherokee Rally

The weather was great and the bikers came out in big numbers. We had many opportunities to witness. We spoke to two different bikers who said they were saved and seem to have a good testimony. We witnessed to Ted and Beverly, on Saturday morning and their need for a Savior. We continue to see God working in their lives. Keep them in your prayers. We also witness to a biker (Chuck), who came up from my home town, and invited him to our church services on Sunday when he gets back.

So far this year we have had more bikers receive tracts than ever before. We also have had more opportunities to talk one on one with them.
