Moto Rally for Mozambique

September 19-20, 2020

Motorcycles play a critical role for the transportation of pastors in rural communities. Many pastors do not have access to transportation and have to walk miles to each of their churches. The MI Moto Rally hopes to raise awareness and funds to purchase motorbikes in country and supply them to pastors in need.

Bishop Farr will lead riders on two separate rides through Missouri on September 19-20, 2020, to help raise money for motorcycles in Mozambique. The cost of a motorcycle in Mozambique is $2,500.

If you would like to participate in this motorcycle trek across the state, please register so that you can receive updates and information about the journey. There is no fee to participate in the ride, and riders are welcome to come and go, riding short segments with the group along the way.

No motorcycle? No problem!

Even if you don't ride a motorcycle, there are several ways you can support the effort to raise money for motorcycles in Mozambique.
