THE CAUSE:
All funds raised will be used toward the purchase of motorcycles/dirt bikes to enable indigenous Christian leaders to reach their own people with the love and message of Jesus. Transportation is a strategic tool for world evangelism. Most indigenous pastors working in jungles, mountain villages, and distant towns are limited to walking. A motorcycle/dirt bike will help an indigenous pastor expand their outreach "unto the uttermost parts of the earth". (Acts 1:8)
THE GOAL:
Provide motorcycles to indigenous pastors-cost is between $1,500-$3,000 per bike.
THE NEXT RIDE:
September 2023 - Check back for date
Testimonies from 2 pastors who received motorcycles.

2022 Jon's Ride Update
"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be the glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen" Ephesians 3:20,21
Sunday, September 18, 2022 was a beautiful fall day for the 17th Annual Jon "Just Get 'ER Done" Memorial Ride! A HUGE thank you to Road Captain Bob Borner ,for putting together another amazing ride for the 57 motorcycles who participated in the 100+ mile ride. Another HUGE thank you to the faithful road guards who willingly put themselves in harm's way to keep us all safe. Over 120 friends and family joined us for dinner and a brief ministry update as we celebrated Jon's life and the eternal legacy that continues to be written through these motorcycles. We're so excited to share that, as of today, over $71,000 has been raised to purchase motorcycles for indigenous pastors and Christian leaders in Africa! A HUGE thank you to all of you who gave so generously to help these pastors expand their ministries in regions of Africa where transportation remains a critical need. God is using each of you as a tangible blessing to these Chrisitan leaders who are on the front lines sharing God's love with their own people. God continues to "abundantly bless Jon's Ride and this ministry above all that we could think or imagine". God is so incredibly faithful......
Please be in prayer as decisions on the dispersal of these funds are made over these next months - the need is so great for these pastors and wisdom is required for those making the decisions as to where these motorcycles will make the biggest difference in ministries and communities. Check back on this website after the 1st of the year for a final total of funds raised and to learn of decisions made on the distributions of these new motorcycles!
