Our church is blessed to have several ways we reach out to the community.

Motorcycle Outreach Ministry

There is a subculture of people living on the edge of society divided into several groups: one of the most recognizable groups is the biker community. Our motorcycle outreach ministry has a goal; to reach deep into that community and inject the love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ into as many as can accept it. This can take long periods and personal investments of time and relationship on the part of our ministers in order to establish the trust and relationship it takes to reach these folks. Our ministers, through the direction and grace of God, go “the extra mile” in proving the unconditional love of Jesus to that community, as well as the street gangs and that part of the subculture.

This ministry is “home missions” at it’s grittiest. Our guys and gals go into the prisons, rallies, streets, and one on one with whoever will listen and share the Gospel until it makes it’s way through the pain of this life.

Each year we have a special time of reaching out specifically to bikers during a Sunday morning service. Biker Sunday is one of our most anticipated events of the year.

RECOVERY

Meets: 7:00 PM Thursdays at the church

Our Recovery Program is based on the book “Power to Choose”. Anyone with ANY kind of addiction is welcome. Privacy is protected.

God accepts each one of us right where we are when we call upon Him, even in the midst of our addiction. We assemble in a closed meeting where we can freely share what God is doing in our life. Only those who have actively joined the group are allowed to attend, following the requirement that “what you hear and who you see stays in the meeting”. This is absolutely necessary to the success of the meetings.

Recovery is a work in progress, one day, and even one hour at a time. When we ask Jesus to come into our life and forgive us of our sins that is exactly what He does. Therefore, sharing anyone’s past is not important, what is important is that we continue to build our relationship with Jesus and with others.

If you are ready to find out how others are living a clean and sober life, we welcome you to join us. Call the Buckner location at 816-650-WORD, and we will put you in touch with the right people to get you on the road to recovery and victorious living.
