Iron Horse Motorcycle Ministry

Iron Horse Ministries (I.H.M.) is a Christ-centered, inter-denominational, non-profit motorcycle ministry. God's purpose for this growing nation-wide ministry is to work quietly behind the scenes - 'Building Bridges To Christ'.

Our mission is three-fold:

1. To quietly minister behind the scenes with loving integrity, to the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those in the motorcycling community - no matter what kind of bike they ride, or who they ride with. We do this by developing one-on-one relationships, just like Jesus has done with us. Our desire is to share and to show the love of Christ in such a way, as to hopefully cause them to want for themselves, what they see God doing in and through us.

2. To create awareness within the Christian community of the many needs and opportunities to minister to those that ride motorcycles. This is done in part through multi-media presentations brought to churches and other groups. We use these presentations to help shatter the myths about bikers. As a result, many folks are able to see for themselves that not all people who ride motorcycles are associated with a certain group of people, and they don't all ride a certain brand of motorcycle. More importantly, they come to realize that they too can reach out to this often feared and misunderstood segment of society.

3. To help build a nation-wide network of "biker-friendly" churches. God's purpose for this is two-fold: 1) to help unify the body of Christ (the Church); and 2) to make it possible for a rider in need to connect with a Christ centered, Bible believing church body in their area, that will accept them as they are, and minister to them and their family - no strings attached, no questions asked.

The purpose of this web site is:

1. To share God's vision of this ministry; it is He who began this work, and it is He, through His people, who sustains it.

2. To teach, encourage and challenge born again believers to step out of the boat (so to speak) and become involved.

3. To reach out with the hope of ministering in some small way to those who share a love of motorcycles, but don't yet have a personal relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ.

4. Finally, to create an understanding of the motorcycling community for the believers and non-believers, as well as for the riders and non-riders, so that some bridges of understanding may be built between them all.
