this time of the year rolls around, there is excitement stirring in the air. The Support Center and Iron Mountain staff have been in full swing, preparing for family and friends to arrive. Workdays are scheduled as volunteers flock to the grounds, and CMA teams have been working as plans unfold; time is spent in prayer and preparation.

Let me encourage you to make plans to attend the 2026 Changing of the Colors Rally beginning Wednesday, October 21st through Sunday morning, October 25th. This is CMA’ s premier event. It is a camp meeting and family reunion for bikers all tied up in one. You will experience a powerful move of the Holy Spirit. While it is a great time to renew old acquaintances, you’ ll also

meet new members and hear from our National Evangelists.

A mission statement for the Changing of the Colors Rally could be Romans 1:11-12( NKJV),“ For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established— that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith of both you and me.”

The Holy Spirit will minister to us individually, touching and changing our lives for the better, meeting our needs and giving us direction for the future. It is a time when you will be encouraged, built up, and refreshed. When you arrive on Iron Mountain, you will immediately sense the presence of GOD. This is a time to relax, visit fellow bikers around a campfire, share a meal with friends, and eat ice

cream.

We will be celebrating 51 years in the ministry of CMA. Psalm 66:5( NKJV) says it best:“ Come and see the works of God; He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men.”

Becky and I look forward to seeing you all in Hatfield, Arkansas. CMA
