Keith and I, and some of the Honorbound Patch Holders from Florida, are riding over to Avon Park today (Dec, 14th, 2011). Keith is speaking at The Avon Park Youth Academy to 150 boys. Pray for hearts and lives to be changed!

Just got back home from the event. There were 26 commitments tonight, all asking for someone to follow up with them. Many excepted a “Book Of Hope Road Edition”. Please pray for the Lord to work in each of they lives!

Toy Run

Lynn Turcotte — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 12:49:38 +0000

December 3rd, 2011 we rode to Leesburg, Fl for an annual Toy Ride. The great turn out reminded us of when we do the Run For The Wall. There was probably 3 to 4 hundred bikers there. Everyone brought a toy and gave a donation so that kids would be able to have a Christmas. What better cause could there be? We had several people come up to us and make commit on how good our Honorbound patch looked. It was so great to be there and represent not only Honorbound, but Jesus Christ.

Roscoe’s Chili Challenge

November 3rd through the 6th, 2011, Chaplain Keith Turcotte and a few of our Honorbound members will be hosting the hospitality tent at Roscoe’s Chili Challenge. This is not an event for the faint of heart, so we have selected a small team of mature Honorbound members to help with the event. We will be serving coffee most of the day and pancakes in the mornings. Please keep the team in prayer as they minister at the event.

Biketoberfest a Great Success

Lynn Turcotte — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 15:06:50 +0000

I looked up the definition of success, (the favorable or prosperous termination of attempts or endeavors). I didn’t agree with the word termination. We had great success at the Bike Wash, we do not terminate our endeavors at all! After Biketoberfest 2011, we are working even harder to reach Bikers for Christ! We had one of the best team of people come out to help this year. Many at their own expense and lost of work. The Pastor and folks from Evangel Temple, Palm Coast, Fl, always a blessing! We prayed with many and planted many seed! Please pray that they will grow and be fruitful! Thank you to everyone for everything you did to make this event a Great Success!

How Our Ministry Started

Lynn Turcotte — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 20:00:08 +0000

After many years in traditional ministry, my husband started talking about getting a motorcycle. He had one when he was younger. Back then, he rode bikes, raced cars and did anything for excitement. Soon after he expressed his desire to get another bike, our best friends bought one and that sealed the deal for us. I had never ridden on a bike before and had never considered riding one myself. For awhile, I rode along with my husband and absolutely loved it. Instead of him doing things without me, like hunting, fishing, and golfing, we spent time on the bike together. I absolutely loved it! After awhile I started to want my own bike. A woman riding solo on a bike wasn’t as popular 15 years ago as it is today.

We enjoyed day rides and short weekend trips with friends. They would ask people they knew to come as well. Soon we were influencing them because we were just being who we are. We would pray before each ride and at meals, this lead to us becoming a spiritual influence. We lead several couples to the Lord during this time, which lead to their whole families coming to Christ.

In 2002, we were at General Council of The Assemblies of God, Kansas City, MO, where I saw a Motorcycle on display in the convention center. On the bike was a card that read, “Nationally appointed US Missionary to Motorcyclists”. I showed the bike to my husband, his words were, “How do you get to do that”? After coming home, Keith ran into the same guy that owned the bike from Kansas City in our town of Lakeland, Fl. He had moved there from Kansas City, MO. How crazy is that? After much prayer, and fleecing God, we received several miracles which gave us the answer that we were called to full time motorcycle ministry.

A few years ago, we and several other couples, helped start the National Honorbound Motorcycle Ministry of The Assemblies of God. We use this as a way for groups to promote Evangelism, Group Outreach, and to see that there are many benefits, as well as, ministry potential through Motorcycle Ministry in the local church.
This is not a glamorous calling, but it is so worth it because we are in the perfect will of God at this time. We are “everyday people” trying to make a difference in a dark world. It is such an honor and a blessing to do the work that God has ordained and called us to do. Our desire and calling is to minister and lead the lost to Christ.
