2nd Annual EPIC Ride 5-22-2010

Brother Boogie got us all started by blessing us with his music, check him out on MYSPACE.

Chapter Two was a co-sponsor with Wings in the Wind MM this past saturday for the 2nd annual EPIC ride. EPIC is a non-profit organization that helps mothers who are thinking about abortion. It's supported completly by donations from groups and individuals. Last year we helped raise over $3,ooo.oo on the ride. Not sure about this year until all the pledges and monies are counted. We had 47 bikes show up for the ride, thats not bad when you consider there were around 5 other rides scheduled for the same day!! We had a law enforcement escourt about half way and then they blocked traffic the rest of the ride...A different feeling when the blue light is in front of you instead of behind you !!! Look forward to next year when we have over a hundred bikes, maybe C1 can put it on their calendar.... God bless you all and hope to see many of you in July for the next National meeting. Enjoy the pics. A brother from S.C

70th CHDDA SPRING RALLY

Greetings from C2, we went to the 70th CHDDA SPRING RALLY in New Bern, North Carolina this past Saturday. Remember it use to be in Myrtle Beach, SC. I can only give you my personal opinion, and that is I wish would have saved my money !! It was really sad.... a handful of vendors.....lousy band.....some dirt drags...and nothing else. On the positive side there was at least six Christian Groups there !! Also some local Clubs and one 1% Club. And praise God our National Chaplian PREACHERMAN went up to their President and introduced himself and invited him and his Club to our Church and to our next Biker Sunday!! The Great Commission in action !! I left the Bike Rally and went to downtown New Bern to a car show and took a few pics, also a few at the bike rally. Look and enjoy, God Bless you all...

IT'S OFFICIAL

It's official.. CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS is now a MOTORCYCLE MINISTRY.

We have gone thru the painstaking process of praying, voting and approval and most grueling of all.. acquiring patches!

At first there was some resistance to changing away from a Christian Brotherhood. But after close observation, we noticed that the riding group was turning into just a hangout club.  Guys were driving trucks and cars to the meetings, not going on any of the local rides and basically not taking our club seriously.  Half of them didn't have working motorcycles and didn't care to get them up and running.
Well those times are OVER!  You actually have to own a running motorcycle to join us!  Hah.. imagine that?!

We will always be 'brothers', but the focus is now off ourselves and onto JESUS CHRIST.
We are gearing up for more MINISTRY outreach and being lights in the world rather than a bunch of burned out lightbulbs.

Thank you all who have encouraged us to move forward with this decision and also for your many prayers.
We continue to covet your prayers as we look to God for our daily bread and as we keep an eye out for what HE is doing in our community.. at which time, we will promptly join Him in His work.

God Bless You Everyone,
(Hmmm... sounds like something I'd say around Christmas time?)
