Bike Out Hunger – Texas Baptists Not Just Spinning Their Wheels

Bike riders from all over Texas… ride to raise awareness and fight against hunger in Texas and around the world.

On Monday, April 19, Bike Out Hunger, a 450-mile bike ride to end hunger, will kick off in Ballinger, Texas, ride east through Brownwood, Hamilton, Gatesville, many towns in between, and in Waco, turn south to end on Saturday, April 24, in San Antonio. See BikeOut daily map routes here.

Hunger rallies along the way include Sunday morning kickoff/FBC Ballinger, Monday evening/Howard Payne University, Tuesday lunch/FBC Hamilton, Wednesday lunch/Truett Seminary, Thursday lunch/University of Mary Hardin Baylor, Friday lunch/Bee Cave, and Saturday lunch and celebration/The Fellowship of San Antonio.
Riders are signing up now to ride the full distance or come-and-go at any stop along the way. Proceeds for Bike Out Hunger will go to the Texas Baptist Offering for World Hunger, sending aid for hunger relief and development to many countries around the globe, but also to many places in our own state of Texas.

Churches…please pledge $5 – $10 (or more!) per mile to support a rider(s).  They deserve it!  Hungry children in Texas deserve it! Print this poster for promotion in your church (pdf).

With 1.3 million Texans unsure where their next meal will come from, Texas Baptists are mounting up, pushing forward, rolling over hunger in our beloved state.  Everyone can be a part…join us!
