The Circuit Rider 05/17/2007

"Wheels of Mercy" is the name of our local chapter of "Circuit Rider Motorcycle Ministry." We organized this chapter in agreement with the International and State Presidents of that organization. Our ministry is to people from all walks of life and especially bikers. We visit nursing homes, hospitals, prisons, motorcycle rallies and any place where people congregate Our slogan, "Riding for Jesus" says it all. Our message is simple. "Jesus is Savior and Lord"! Without Him it's hell; with Him it's Heaven. We love each other, we love motorcycles, we love to ride, but most of all we love Jesus!

Three men from our chapter, along with the Texas State Evangelist, just returned from Laughlin, NV where they ministered at the annual rally of the "Hell's Angels" and "Mongrels" motorcycle clubs. The only bikers allowed to wear colors at that rally were those in Christian ministries. Our men wore theirs with grace and dignity. They preached to, prayed with and passed out literature to a lot of people. The men from our chapter were Calvin Morris, vice president, Ray Moore, senior road captain and Robert McCurdy, road captain. We have heard some exciting reports and look forward to hearing more!

"Wheels of Mercy" members meet at 3:30 pm the second Saturday of every month. The meetings are held at the Edom Community Center. If you are a born again Christian, involved in a church, and interested in ministry, come and join us. Our requirements are strict. We are not a club, but a ministry. A motorcycle is not a requirement, but a heart for ministry is. We expect a lot from our members, but the blessings are worth it all.

See you on the road!

Bill Hamilton, The Circuit Rider
