Come join us as we pray over our local bikers for their safe travels throughout the riding season. Our local bikers are so appreciative and look forward to this event every year, so let's come out and support them and lift them up to the Lord. In addition to lifting up them up in prayer, there will be a pancake breakfast in the church parking lot immediately following the blessing.
We are still in need of people to help set up, cook, serve & clean up. Set up & cooking will begin at 8:00am and breakfast will be served right after the blessing. We are also asking folks to donate pancake mix, bacon and sausage for the breakfast. Any help that can be provided, no matter how small is tremendously appreciated. Let Sandy know by this Friday, May 30th if you are able to help in any way.
For more details or if you have questions, feel free to contact Sandy or the Church Office.

What is Love Elgin Day?
Hosted by the local churches and undergirded by the business, professional, government and social services community, Love Elgin Day is an outreach to simply bless Elgin families and individuals who need physical resources and spiritual encouragement.
Love Elgin Day offers an opportunity for people to experience the Kingdom of God and see it touching their lives in tangible and even supernatural ways, as the Gospel of Jesus Christ is carried right to the heart and home of every guest served. Our goal is to minister to the spiritual, emotional, physical, mental and financial needs of every person.
