HAVE

you ever stopped to consider that each week, as your local chapter hits the road for a ride, gathers together in a home for prayer and Bible study, or serves at a local motorcycling event in your community, other CMA members in other countries are doing the exact same thing?
The CMA family around the globe is a picture of what the Apostle Paul describes in Romans 12:4-5( NLT):β€œ Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, so it is with Christ’ s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each
other.”
As followers of Jesus who have received a special calling to share His love with motorcyclists, we are joined together in a truly unique way. We are all parts of Christ’ s body, each functioning as He intends in our own communities. Yet, through the presence of the Holy Spirit, we are one in Jesus.
If you ever feel lonely serving Jesus through the ministry of CMA, please be encouraged. You are not alone! You are part of a family of missionary servants, each of us obediently going and serving as the Lord leads. Each of us is connected, not only by the
back patch that unites us, but by the Holy Spirit who lives within each of us. No matter where we may ride, what language we may speak, we are one body in Christ. Each of us is doing our part, changing the world, one heart at a time.
Already in 2026, CMA International nations have been sharing the Good News of Christ with bikers in their countries. We are receiving great testimonies of CMA members’ faithfulness and how the Lord is moving in the motorcycling culture in various countries. Here are just a few quick highlights:
CMA MEXICO The last weekend in February was a busy time for CMA Mexico members. In the Northeast region of Mexico, CMA Mexico members gathered for their Seasons of Refreshing event at Piedras Negras, Coahuila. Just as members in the U. S. do, the CMA faithful in this part of Mexico explored Jesus ' words to His first followers,β€œ Come and See!” and trained for future evangelistic outreach to the bikers in their areas.

At the same time in central Mexico, CMA Mexico members served at Motofiesta Leon. This event is the largest gathering of motorcyclists in Latin America. Complete with rides, vendors, and concerts, this event is not only a major event, but it’ s a major party for bikers. CMA Members faithfully connected with thousands of motorcyclists who attended by serving at a CMA popup tent, sharing water, coffee, and popcorn for all who would stop by. Offering bike blessings was instrumental in sparking many conversations about Christ and in opening opportunities to pray with many bikers.
