“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” -Acts 1:8

Gabe Hillman in the mountains of Velingrad, Bulgaria
Tomorrow, our team of 12 riders will be cycling 300 miles to do what Jesus says we can do through the power of the Holy Spirit- to be witnesses of Christ in Florida, Bulgaria, and ‘To the Ends of the Earth.‘ God has provided a way for YouthHOPE and youth ministers from 7 different churches throughout the Fort Myers area to come together for the same cause- to reach the unreached youth of Bulgaria with the love of Christ. Not only has God been faithful to provide riders, churches, and support for the ride,but He has also opened doors to share with the surrounding community the need for servants in youth ministry around the world. We pray that through this ride we glorify the Father on earth, having accomplished the work that he gave us to do (John 17:4) by raising a goal of at least $5,000 towards ministry equipment for the Hillmans in Velingrad, Bulgaria.
Over the next 5 days we will be posting video and stories from our journey to Key West from Fort Myers. Here are a few ways you can partner with us:
- Each day we will have a different prayer point that we will be focusing on during each day’s ride. Follow our blog every evening to partner through prayer and hear testimonies of God at work in the lives of those that we meet.
- Click here to donate and help us each reach our goal of raising at least $5,000.
- Spread the word!! Share with your friends what God is doing to reach the youth in Velingrad. I am reminded of when Jesus helped others, the people went out and told the story to their friends and family.
