Biker Friendly Churches*
Links / How To Qualify As A “Biker Friendly Church”
Black Sheep: Harley-Davidsons for Christ is committed to the ministry of the local church. We are a missionary outreach to bikers and our Mission Statement reads: “To introduce Jesus Christ to the world of motorcycle riders, for the purpose of making more and better disciples through the ministry of the local church.” In fact, in order to be a member of Black Sheep HDFC, one must be a member or regular attender of a local church and come to us with a pastor or church leader’s recommendation. It is for this reason that we are always looking for “biker friendly churches” around the country.
Each year, motorcycle riders from all over the country contact Black Sheep, inquiring if we know of a church where they might attend and be accepted. When a rider calls from your city, we would like to be able to point them in your direction with confidence that they are going to hear the uncompromised Word of God. In addition, since many are riding very expensive motorcycles which are easily picked up and stolen away, we would also like to know if there is some place safe to park their bikes; either designated bike parking or perhaps someplace next to the buildings. (Bikes on the streets or distant parking lots are “easy pickins”.)
May we include your church on our website as a “biker friendly church”? please consider the following questions:
1. Have you read our Statement of Faith and can you agree with it?
2. Does your church teach the Bible and its concepts?
3. Is your church excited about Jesus Christ and committed to authentic worship?
4. Can I come to your church in biker clothes and still be accepted by the people?
5. Will you accept me even if I have long hair (or no hair), tattoos and piercings?
6. Is there a place that I can park my bike safely?
Many churches place an emphasis on missionary work at home and abroad. If your church has a heart for missions work, may we suggest that you consider a monthly missions support for Black Sheep Harley-Davidsons for Christ. A very small amount of monthly support from churches accross the country will ensure that more and more people will hear the good news of Jesus Christ. We humbly ask that you prayerfully consider becoming a supporter of this important missionary ministry to reach the hundreds of thousands of men and women that ride and don't know Jesus.
If you are interested in becoming a “biker friendly church”, or helping support the Black Sheep Minstry, then contact SlowDog@BlackSheepHDFC.org and let us know. Or call (909) 600-2694. Thank-you for helping us find biker friendly churches.
