Quick, Important ASR Announcement

Due to a flood of fake registrations recently, the Azusa StreetRiders website is currently in “invitation only” mode. This means that real people trying to register on the site won’t be able to unless they first get an invite from you or another current site user.
Q: How to invite?
A: Use “Invite” link at the bottom of any page, or just click this link: http://www.azusastreetriders. com/invite/

2015 Membership Dues

We are at the 2015 next level of Azusa StreetRiders. All invoices will be sent to your email address on file. If you are a member that is in a provisional chapter or not part of a chapter you can go to http://www.azusastreetriders. com/store/2105-membership-renewal/ and pay your dues. This link is only available until April 1.

Just a little side note. Your memership dues help to keep ASR functioning by allowing us to have the tools we need to make your outreach and ours successful. We have Area Coordinators in a few states and hopefully by the end of this year we will have most of the states covered. The Coordinators will be the person you go to when you need supplies or help with putting together an event. If you are not part of a chapter your coordinator will help you keep in touch with other members in your area as well as information on National Events.

We are successful when we work together to reach souls! You are not alone in this ministry! Please feel free to call or email any board member if you have a question or need help!

Gift Giving

Christmas-Presents-004

 

It is that time of the year. If you are looking for a great gift to give a biker put your order in and I will put it together gift wrapped and shipped to that person or shipped to you so you can give it to them. If there is something in particular you would like us to carry in the online store let me know and I will look into making it possible. Purchases help to pay for advertising, ASR event expenses, Booths at events, etc. I have created some gift ideas under Shop>Christmas Gifts.

Merry Christmas to all and to the coming New Year !

I want to remind everyone that if you have any donations for Motorcycles for Missionaries you can make it through the Shop! All donations are appreciated! Thank you to all who have given from their hearts to this worthy cause. It helps  reach out to many lost souls when missionaries can get to the places they need to go.

In January the bills will be emailed for the upcoming 2015 dues. Please make sure that I have your current email address. If you need the bill mailed to you let me know at lydia.diaz@azusastreetriders.com or 609-742-6539. I am also adding a link in the shop for individual memberships. Chapters still need to pay through the invoice so that I know who is paying.

Hearing the Voice of God – Part III

In this final part of Hearing the Voice of God, we will see how Israel reacted to hearing the voice of God and what happened when the man of God from Judah listened to a man after hearing the voice of God for himself.

Roar to the Shore Sept 5 & 6 2014, Wildwood, NJ

roartotheshore2014

It was a great outreach in Wildwood, NJ! We had several states represented (OH, NJ, KY, NY & PA). We want to thank Bro Artie Brown for allowing us to use his home so that ASR members had a place to stay.

We prayed with people that came to the booth and passed out flyers for the biker blessing.  Bro and Sis Curley went down at night to where the Pagans had their meeting and spoke to several people about the Lord. During the day Bro Storey, Bro Curley and Bro Klages walked through the vendor booths where all the bikers were to talk to them. The rest of us manned the booth. Later that night they had a prayer meeting at Bro Arties house and Bro Norman Knight received the precious gift of the Holy Ghost.

After the event I received a phone call from a couple who had my business card and requested prayer for her husband. They also want to come to our Chapter meeting to find out more about our ministry! This ministry truly works as an awesome outreach for Jesus Christ!

We are excited about next year. We plan to have church service  with Bro Curley preaching on Sunday and a biker blessing at the booth. We will also be prepared to baptize anyone that is seeking salvation. Please put this event on your calendar for next year (the first weekend after Labor Day, Sept 4 & 5, 2015).

July 30 through August 2, 2014; 4th Annual ASR International Rally 2014, Maryville, TN

photo (3)Azusa StreetRiders from 12 US states and Canada converged on First Apostolic Church (Pastor Kenneth Carpenter) in Maryville, TN for our only true annual “fellowship” event…All other events worldwide focus on outreach for Christ. We had rides (Google “Tail of the Dragon”) and events scheduled for each day and had 42 bikes on one “Dragon” ride!

We were blessed to have Pastor Cortt & Sis. Amanda Chavis (Truth Chapel, Loganville, GA) as our featured speakers for our three open-to-public night services. Attendance estimates were around 300-400 for each night and we were ministered to! Thank you Bro. & Sis. Chavis! These messages will soon be available for viewing on our ASR website…Listen to them…You will be blessed!

At our Azusa StreetRiders International business meeting Saturday, Bro. Robert Thompson (Maryville, TN Chapter) was re-elected Secretary and Rev. Todd Storey (Northern KY Chapter) was elected Vice-President. Two international appointments were also made…Rev. Julie McGhghy (Cincinnati, OH Chapter) was installed as ASR Ladies Chaplain and Bro. Michael Theodore (Ashtabula, OH Chapter) was installed as ASR Road Captain. Sis. McGhghy is available to assist with any issues specific to women and can be contacted via the ASR website, while Bro. Theodore will be assisting each chapter with their rides. Both have considerable experience for their respective positions and should be contacted as needed.

For their efforts and help with Azusa StreetRiders, Bro. & Sis. Carpenter and Bro. & Sis. Chavis were inducted as “Honorary Members” of Azusa StreetRiders and were each presented with a vest with our ASR backpatch stating such.

This past year our Azusa StreetRiders US and Canadian efforts resulted in funding for the purchase of two motorcycles for Brother Naimy (ALJC missionary to the Philippines) and a gift of $1,000 to ALJC’s World Missions Department.

At the business meeting, it was stressed that the funding goal for each ASR chapter is $1,000 annually for “Motorcycles for Missionaries.” Additionally, to help promote our efforts for Christ, we asked each member of ASR that is active on social media to promote us. On Facebook, our official name is “Azusa Street-Riders” and on Twitter, we are “@Azusa StreetRide”…We were asked to please “Like”, “Share” and “Retweet” info about our upcoming events that are promoted there and ask other to also “like” and “follow” us.

It was announced that the next “Bind the Strongman” all-night prayer event will be held at United Pentecostal Church (Pastor Robert Eades and ASR Member) in Eminence, KY on March 6, 2015. Prayer will start at 9:00 PM. This is Azusa StreetRiders’ annual prayer event that does not involve biking…everybody (public welcome) comes together and prays through the night following World Network of Prayer’s guidelines. Focused prayer is led throughout the night and following the prayer, everyone simply returns home. We’ve had attendees from as many as nine states attend a past event…Needs are met and prayers are answered at these events. Please plan to attend!
