Cross Country Bike Ride for Acirfa

Beginning May 25th, a team of North Park University students will begin a cross country bike ride from San Francisco to Boston. The purpose of their trip is multi-fold.

The team will ride to promote discussion on justice and social justice in the Church. They will stay and present at Covenant Churches along their route, opening conversation with the question, "What is Justice?"

In conjunction with their discussion on justice is an aim to raise awareness for Acirfa and Spark Ventures. Spark Ventures exists to provide the children of Ndola, Zambia with food, shelter, education, and healthcare.

We are looking forward to witnessing the impact the team has on the communities they visit, and their subsequent global impact throughout their trip. Please be in prayer for all of the riders as they begin the first part of their trip this week. For more information, please read the article published by the Covenant Church, or visit Matt Enquist's blog for more up to date information.
