CMA is an international ministry serving in over 14 countries worldwide taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ to bikers and befriends all. CMA can be found on the Web at cmausa.org.

We have members of the Harrah 1st Assembly of God that belong to the CMA, "Redeemed Riders" Chapter 768, Shawnee, OK. We qualify our Church as "Biker Friendly."

Vision: Changing the world, one heart at a time. We will accomplish our vision through outreach primarily to the motorcycling community, but not exclusively. We will accomplish our vision through: Mission: To inspire our leaders and members to be the most organized, advanced, equipped, financially stable organization, full of integrity in the motorcycling industry and the Kingdom of God. CMA partners with three other ministries (Jesus Film project,
Missionary Ventures, and Open Doors) to spread the Gospel around
the world. In 2004 CMA donated $546,293.00 to each one of the
three ministries as a result of the Run for the Son fundraiser.

Have you ever considered going to a secular rally but were stopped by thoughts like "What would I do? Where would I fit in?" Here is a proven learning opportunity for you, based on Scriptural Concepts - The Christian Motorcyclists Association's Ministry Team Training Program. This training material includes practical teaching and illustrations, which demonstrate the importance of using your abilities to reach others with the Gospel. After listening and working through these tapes, you will learn that two of the key ingredients in sharing your faith are being visible and being involved. You will learn that building relationships with others will eventually open doors for ministry in the motorcycling world. Just a reminder, you must complete a ministry team in order to obtain a CMA back patch or any item with a large CMA logo. Top Servants' Ministry Team Designed for people willing to be used in a variety of ways by meeting practical and physical needs at rallies. This ministry team member may offer help to the rally promoter in such areas as registration, security, clean-up, motorcycle games, working at the ticket office, etc. This special audio training tape follows the six-tape basic series. You will hear from CMAers who are active on this special ministry team. This training series promises to provide you with many creative ways to serve at secular rallies or at one of many CMA events. Top Women's Ministry Team This special training material provides practical insight on building relationships with women. The six tape basic course provides practical and Biblical reasons for ministering on the highways and byways. This additional audio training tape is by women who are active in one-on-one ministry in the motorcycling world. You will learn how to open doors for meeting women's spiritual needs by first of all meeting their practical and physical needs. This series offers many suggestions, ideas and illustrations of how God can use you in the Women's Ministry Team. Top Prayer Ministry Team Many of you are actively involved in a prayer ministry in your local church and chapter, but you may not know other ways your prayers can reach out to the lost. Part of this training program is not only to give you the basics for praying for people's needs, but also to put your prayers into practice by visiting downed bikers and others in the hospitals. This ministry gives you the opportunity to minister to others who may not be near home, or may not be a Christian. Your prayers and visits may be the first step for many to come to know the love and forgiveness of the Lord. Top Prison Ministry Team CMA has developed a training program for those of you who wish to be more involved in prison ministry. Gary Wadding will share with you the principles of prison ministry and the procedures for making your visit inside a prison effective. This is a vital program that CMA knows you will want to become involved in (and show to your spouse and friends). Top Hospitality Ministry Team This is the team for those who naturally seem to draw a crowd around their camp. These team members may provide popcorn, soup, snacks, water, coffee, or just good fellowship at their camp for the purpose of building relationships and sharing Jesus. Practical suggestions in this training tape will equip you to offer ministry to the campers around you. Top Music Ministry Team The theme of this team is: "Music to reach their ears, so that the message can reach their hearts." The training material details how to provide music for services at the evangelist's request or how to lead group sing-a-longs around the campfire.

This material will instruct you on how to use your abilities to meet the mechanical needs of motorcyclists attending the rally.
