Don Wallace– Ohio
Austin Seaton– Illinois
Todd Colosimo –South Carolina

The board has also been busy selecting regions for 2024 Bind The Strong Man. We we will have those locations set for you next month. So you can start planning on attending one of the BTSM locations.
Also, Brother Jeremiah Hayes and Brother Scott Culver are working together to add more state and regional Chaplains for us.
I will ask that you continue to pray for this board as we move forward. We are so excited to see what the Lord has for us in 2024.
Lastly, I want to thank all the chapters. All the membership with the awesome giving towards Motorcycles for Missionaries. We are able to purchase 15 motorcycles this year. Thank you, Tom Harding, for your hard work with this. Thank you, Robert Thompson, for seeing this, though. The total amount was $25,850. Thank you all. May the Lord truly bless you.

From Rodante de Guzman

Victory!
A total of 997km journey, reached and Marked the Philippines highest highway system. The ASR Team with 7 determined riders took off from manila to Baguio city for a promotional invitation of UPC National World Mission Director Pastor Jimmy Sulit.

In an instant we saw our selves singing in the front of the E summit delegates while they taking their lunch.. thank you for the talented members of ASR Philippines. Great response from the attendees and crowded with inquiries how to join the ASR.
Thank you to our instant singers
Sir Jun Fabro, Sis Gev Fabro, Ptra Liezel Elardo singing “Dakilang katapatan” and the musicians who eveready to play the instruments for the Glory of God!
Ptr Denz our Drummer
Bro Jermiah Lazona Bassist
And yours truly as pianist.

After the event the team stayed in UPC Baguio courtesy of Rev Eugene Banez, a comfortable bed for us to prepare our body for the next mission. thank you Ptr Eugene!

We reached the top at 11am. What refreshing scenery! Beholding the wonders of nature and the amazing creations of God!

We continue our journey to Sagada spanning the Halsema high way” categorized as one of the most dangerous highway in the world” And thank God we’ve made it we arrived in one piece! We reached Sagada town at 5:30pm .. Another milestone as rider of ASR Philippines

At 7pm we still determined to reach our next mission in UPC Aglipay and UPC Maddela.. at exactly 3:30AM we reached UPC Aglipay to have a short meal and rest, thank you Ptr Macoy Prieto and Sis Rosan Prieto for accomodation and delicious food.
We proceed to Maddela church and take a rest for the next journey.

Saturday 1PM we offer prayer for God’s Blessings to Prieto Family together with Dad our ASR mentor who is in vacation on the same place.

Preparing for the next and final journey! Home bound Manila!

The team departed the UPC Maddela at exactly 2PM, travelling the Quirino-Aurora-Nueva Ecijah road. Driving on a twisty, bouncy, steep road is not a joke on a team running out of time.. we try as fast as we could but with strict safety to reach out home since its already sunday.

Touchdown Taguig

Finally we reached Taguig where we start our Journey at exactly 3AM.

Tired but our hearts overflowed with joy, satisfied as we completed the mission!

Seeing the countryside and traveling for ASR Ministry, Outreaching, Sharing the Good News God’s Word, Shining the light. First trip the month of April Myrtle Beach,S.C.

Jacksonville, Illinois Biker Weekend

 

Article by
Austin Seaton

Hello and greetings from the west central Illinois Azusa Street Riders! Based in Jacksonville, Illinois. Our chapter started 6 years ago with the help and guidance of brothers Mark Hardin and Scott Culver. From there we began our endeavor and this year hosted our 5th annual biker weekend. With our largest turnout to date we began the first of our 3 day event with prayer. We drove from church to church in our region and prayed for revival and an outpouring of the holy ghost across our state and nation. Saturday we began with a breakfast meet and greet welcoming old friends and introducing new ones. After the ride concluded we met at Austin Seaton and wife Melissa Seatons home for food games and fellowship. Sunday was nothing short of anointed Brothers David Barajas and family of Moline IL brought a message of Praise and releasing a spirit of the lion of Judah. The alters filled as a overwhelming spirit of the Holy Ghost began to pour out lives held in bondage changed and multiple being refilled with the Holy spirit after years away from God’s love. I am beyond blessed by the ministry of the Azusa Street Riders and cannot wait to see what the upcoming year’s have in store. I leave with a scripture that has been deeply impacting as of late Psalm 27/14 Wait on the Lord be of good courage and he will strengthen thine heart. Thank you so much to all of my local chapter for making this our best year yet and cannot wait for what is yet to come!
