This is Mark “Bull” Phillips, Pastor of A&D Biker & Jeep Ministries of Lafayette, IN, and his wonderful wife Bonnie. They are so excited to welcome you to the A&D Biker Ministries of Lafayette website! Pastor Bull was called to Biker Ministry in 2012, when he founded 2 motorcycle ministries in Lafayette.
Pastor Bull served as Pastor of one ministry as well as serving as President and later Chaplain of the other ministry. Besides leading A&D, Pastor Bull is also a full-time firefighter, and owns an instructional rescue business.
After eight years in motorcycle ministry, Pastor Bull and Bonnie felt called to follow God’s will and open A&D Biker & Jeep Ministries. A&D Biker Ministries originated in Racine, WI in 2008 under the leadership of Pastor Ralph “Doc” Scherer.
A&D of Lafayette is honored to have been given a charter as the second A&D church, and look forward to serving God with you as we reach out to bikers and non-bikers as well.
We are a non-traditional church . . . designed especially (but not exclusively) for those who love to ride. We love God. We serve Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord of our lives. And we have found greater joy, peace, and freedom in HIM than we ever knew B.C. (Before Christ). Like all churches we have a gathering for worship, but we meet on Saturday nights so that we can attend Biker events on Sundays.
WARNING: A&D is NOT your grandma's Sunday School!
The A&D congregation has no perfect people. In fact, no perfect people are allowed to be a part of the fellowship of A&D Biker & Jeep Ministries. (If you think that you "might be one" . . . we can help you out with that!) What we do have are real people, with real hurts and real needs, who are willing to be real honest AND do life together - so that each of us can become both spiritually & emotionally healthy and mature. (The Bible calls that 'growing up in the full measure in Christ'.)
Take time to check out our entire website (and my weekly updated "Bull's Blog", coming soon). You can find answers on the website for questions you may have about A&D Biker Ministries. PLEASE, contact us for further information about A&D Biker & Jeep Ministries. If we can be of any personal help or encouragement to you . . . call us.
Our desire is to embrace others with the unconditional love of God, and point them to the only One who can really change our lives: Jesus Christ. Please join us on the journey, as we work "to grow the Kingdom of God . . . one Biker at a time."
