SVBA F.A.I.T.H. Riders Partnership
Our church is honored to partner with the Sequatchie Valley Baptist Association F.A.I.T.H. Riders as they share the love of Christ through motorcycle ministry. Together, we are committed to reaching communities and their families with the hope of the gospel, building relationships, and serving our communities in Jesus’ name. By supporting SVBA FAITH Riders in prayer, participation, and resources, we celebrate a unique ministry that goes where many churches cannot—onto the highways, into bike rallies, and into the lives of those who need to know they are seen, valued, and loved by God.
Who Are the FAITH Riders?
- A motorcycle ministry focused on evangelism, discipleship, and service
- A community of riders who share a passion for Christ and for reaching others
- A ministry that partners with local churches to serve the Valley and beyond
How We Partner Together
- Prayer Support
- We commit to praying for their safety, their outreach efforts, and the lives they touch.
- Event Participation
- Our members join FAITH Riders at rallies, community events, and ministry opportunities.
- Resource Support
- We help provide what’s needed—whether volunteers, supplies, or encouragement—to strengthen their mission.
Why This Partnership Matters
Together, we are extending the reach of the gospel, building relationships with people who may never walk into a church on their own, and showing the love of Christ in practical, meaningful ways. This partnership is one more way our church lives out the Great Commission.

Let's commit to be a prayer warrior for those who are going.
At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison— that I may make it clear, which is how I ought to speak.
Colossians 4:3-4
PRAYER MISSION
? Join the 2026 Daytona Prayer Mission ?
"For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them." — Matthew 18:20
As we step into 2026, we believe God is calling us to a new level of purpose through a dedicated Prayer Mission. This initiative is designed so that everyone can be a vital part of the mission field, even if you cannot be in Daytona Beach in person.
How It Works
The Prayer Mission functions just like a volunteer sign-up for an event. We are looking to cover the ongoing mission in Daytona with unceasing prayer by filling one-hour shifts.
• Step 3: Pray – During your hour, dedicate that time to interceding for the workers, the attendees, and the city of Daytona.
What to Pray For
If you feel called to pray but aren't sure where to start, the sign-up system includes specific suggestions. Key focus areas include:
• Safety & Protection: For all travelers and participants during the busy Bike Week events.
• Divine Appointments: That the Holy Spirit would lead our team to those who need to hear the Gospel.
• Boldness & Clarity: For our mission volunteers to speak the truth in love.
• Softened Hearts: That the people we encounter in Daytona would be open to the hope of Christ.
Share the Vision
Please pass this word around! Let your local church, your ministry leaders, and your friends know that there is a seat for them at the "prayer table." Every hour of intercession makes a difference in the spiritual atmosphere of the mission.

Thank you for your bold evangelism and dedicated service!
THE LORD IS NOT SLOW TO FULFILL HIS PROMISE AS SOME COUNT SLOWNESS,
BUT IS PATIENT TOWARD YOU, NOT WISHING THAT ANY SHOULD PERISH,
BUT THAT ALL SHOULD REACH REPENTANCE.
2 Peter 3:9 ESV
We are excited to announce the launch of a new F.A.I.T.H. Riders chapter with the Sequatchie Valley Baptist Association! This ministry brings together believers with a passion for motorcycles and a mission to share the love of Jesus Christ. Our chapter will serve as a place of fellowship, encouragement, and outreach—equipping riders to boldly share their faith and impact our community for Christ. We invite you to join us in celebrating this new beginning and to be part of the journey as we ride with purpose and proclaim the Gospel together.
