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.

2025 Jon Just Ride
“What is impossible with man is possible with God” Luke 18:27
By all accounts, the 2025 Jon “Just Get ‘ER Done” Memorial
Motorcycle Ride was a HUGE success!! Approximately 55 motorcycles
rode the beautiful 90+ mile route safely through the Minnesota River Valley
and did “crop inspections” through LeSueur and Dakota Counties (the
crops looked great!). The day was super -hot – but still 145 joined us for
the ministry update and picnic dinner at McKnight Park to complete the day.
As of today, over $110,000 has been raised!!!!!!!! Donations will continue
to be accepted through the end of the year. ALL funds donated will be
used to purchase motorbikes for indigenous pastors in Africa where
transportation is a major challenge for the ministries of these pastors and
their communities. All motorbikes are purchased in country along with
helmets, safety vests, cable padlocks, insurance and a tank of gas – the
pastors are ready to hit the road for Jesus!
A BIG shout out to Chaska PD, City of Chaska Public Works, Chaska Park
& Rec, City of LeSueur Parks Department, our Fantastic Road Guards,
Digital Impact Solutions (Scott Congdon), Paul Libra (photography) Valley
Evangelical Free Church, Spoke-n-Word chapter of CMA and the always
faithful kitchen crew. It takes many hands to make this day a success and
we’re so grateful for each one!
We were blessed by each of you who joined us that day to celebrate Jon
and the eternal impact that his life continues to make - both here and
abroad. We’re grateful for each one of you who choose to share your
generous financial gifts (and prayers!) that are making such a difference in
the ministries of these pastors. We are truly humbled and amazed at the
“big plan” that God had for this ministry – much bigger than we could have
imagined. What seemed impossible to us is possible to God! Please
check back in January to see the final 2025 total and information on the
distribution of the motorbikes from these funds. Together we’re “getting ‘er
done” for Jesus!
