Another amazing time of worship, hearing The Word, and fellowship with our revitalized Fellowship Riders ministry at Living Stone Worship Center in Del Rio, TX.  From left to right are Dudley Kidwell, Ron Kidwell (President – Fellowship Riders), Margaret and Bill Melendez (Ministry Directors), and Pastor Martin Seca as the church welcomed the rebirth of this ministry under new leadership.

I encourage you to pray for these new leaders as they step into their community “Powered by Christ” and that you make a special effort to visit them as you tour the Great State of Texas.  I’m sure they would be glad to accompany you to Wright’s Steak House for a taste of Texas beef or to La Hacienda for a little Tex-Mex.  By now I’m sure you know the drill, “Ride, Eat, Repeat”.

After a period without leadership, Bill and Margaret Melendez have answered the Lord’s call to step into that position and renew the ministry at Living Stone Worship Center in Del Rio, TX.   

For any of you wondering where Del Rio is, it is on the Texas/Mexico border surrounded by wide-open spaces along the Rio Grande River. 

If you are looking for a reason to ride, here it is.  Everyone is invited to come join Bill and Margaret, Pastor Martin Seca, the members of Living Stone, and all the riders on Sunday, October 11, 2015 @ 11:00AM as this ministry again moves into the community wherever the Lord leads. 

You will not only enjoy the occasion of this relaunch, but have the opportunity to “get on the outside” of some excellent Mexican cuisine, breathe the air scented with Catclaw and Greasewood, stop in Langtry where Judge Roy Bean presided as “The Law West of the Pecos”, and rest your legs on the highway pegs just “because you can”.

Ministry Highlight – Keystone Cruisers for Christ

To quote Pastor Mark Sawyer of another affiliate in Pennsylvania “In our wildest dreams we never realized just how God could use a motorcycle ministry. The doors keep swinging open to His glory!!  In the months since this group was officially launched in September 2014, they have hosted a Safety Training/Bike Blessing event, participated in several local biker and civic events, “The “Wings” always draw attention and open doors to speak about our Savior”, and had a very successful Ride for Missions to fund their Manna Ministry for the year with 62 riders touring 7 covered bridges.

To not limit the reach of Fellowship Riders to the USA and Canada, Keystone Cruisers for Christ has enrolled Pastor Darren Rogers of the Bethany Baptist Church, a visiting pastor from Pontypridd, Wales, UK, as a member of their group, “We bought him a vest, had the wings sewn on the back and made him an honorary member of Keystone Cruisers For Christ.”

Newest Pennyslvania Fellowship Riders Affiliate

It seems the Lord has focused His attention on the Keystone State and released His Holy Spirit to call out riders to reap the harvest and enlarge the Kingdom of God.  Joining our other affiliates in Pennsylvania and across the land is Greater Johnstown Christian Fellowship in Johnstown, PA. 

Please welcome this new ministry, White Horse M/M, to the growing Fellowship Riders family and pray for their leader, Ed Berringer as they submit to the call of the Lord to use their motorcycles for His glory. 

Welcome Our New Affiliates

It is a great pleasure to notify you of our newest Fellowship Riders affiliate in Los Lunas, NM, Greater Vision Ministries.  Known as “Christ’s 20/20 MM”, this newest member of the Fellowship Riders family has truly stepped out in faith to follow the call of the Holy Spirit in beginning its ministry as there are only a few riders at this time, but the Lord is preparing a harvest as these workers move forward in response to His call.

To introduce this ministry to the church body and the community on Father’s Day, there will be a 10:30AM Worship Service followed by a BBQ lunch.  If you are looking for an excuse to ride to the Albuquerque area, here it is.  What more can we ask as riders; meeting a new family member, encouraging others in the body of Christ, and free food? 

Please join the leadership of Fellowship Riders in welcoming this newest member of our family and pray for them as they trust the Lord of the Harvest.

On Sunday, September 21, 2014, I was privileged to be present for the kick-off for our newest Fellowship Riders affiliate, Keystone Cruisers for Christ whose home church is New London Baptist Church in West Grove, PA.

In the time since, Pastor Mark Sawyer and his riders have participated in several community events in addition to organizing their first Angel Tree for Prisoner’s Children, one of the hallmark ministries of Fellowship Riders.

Please welcome this new affiliate to the Fellowship Riders family and strengthen them with prayer as they seek to follow the Lord’s call to serve Him through a motorcycle ministry “Powered by Christ.”

Our newest Fellowship Riders affiliate, West Park Church of Christ in Virginia Beach, VA, used a popular 5K community event called “Spring to Life” that attracts hundreds of participants and families; many of them unchurched; to promote interest in dozens of outreach ministries  – among them their motorcycle ministry.

Steve Wiley, the leader of their Fellowship Riders ministry, is the organizer for this event and provided the picture of their tent and highlighted his H-D Road King with the Fellowship Riders flag, just in case anyone was wondering what he rides.

One particular young man I visited with started to leave and go back into the prison from the yard when the invitation began; I reached out and shook his hand and stopped him.

I asked him, “Do you have a spiritual belief?”, his reply was, ” sort of”.
Then I asked him,” If your sister, wife, brother or whomever picked you up the day of your release and on your way home you were hit by a truck and killed, and found yourself standing in front of Jesus and He said to you, ” Why should I let you into my heaven?, What would you say?.
His reply was,” I don’t think I would get that far.”
I also asked him,” Would you like to know the truth?” and then, I explained this scenario; Continue reading →
