| Hi
All ! A
big thankyou to everyone for your prayers as we went to Athlone
Baptist on our bikes on Sunday 3rd June. IT WAS WET WET WET
!! Normally in those conditions only a handful of hardcore
bikers would turn up, but praise to God as we had over 30
bikes turning out at 7am in the pouring rain! We made it to
Athlone and had a great time of fellowship with Dominic, Carol
and the Church.
We
were really blessed in all aspects of our fellowship and by
testimony given and God's message through Dominic. The little
Church was full to capacity and beyond and the smell of damp
leather was a real experience for the non bikers. Among the
eventual number of around 36 bikers, there were around 6 or
7 unsaved and it was so good to have them with us and experience
the real presence of God in that wee Church!
We
made new contacts with biking brothers from Dublin and other
parts, and it seems that this was just the first of many little
mission trips, (hint - the next one may be in N.I.). Thanks
to CMA, Unchained Gang, Ambassadors and Mototech (Brian Jones
from MBC kindly did backup in his van - and was needed). And
ladies, Joy Jones was the female representative, riding Brians
Ducati !! We had one little incident on the return when one
bike went down in the rain - thanks for prayer cover as the
rider was uninjured, (bike was slightly injured). Unfortunately,
the pigeon that hit Wilson's helmet at speed didn't survive.
There
has been positive feedback already both spiritually and socially,
and despite the weather, everyone really enjoyed Fellowship,
Fun and Freedom. The Church was encouraged and we were encouraged
and a really big thankyou goes to Dominic for sharing with
a bunch of scary bikers!!!!
Where
will the 5 B's go next - R U Man Enough?
Thankyou
everyone for praying - God Is Good!!
The
Big Baptist Biker Boys.
