Ontario church to bless bikes

Bethel UCC will be hosting our first Bike Blessing during their Sunday morning worship service this weekend.  Bicycles, tricycles, motorcycles - all are welcome. 

"Clean bicycles are welcome in the sanctuary (dirty ones can chain up outside)," said Rev Jonathon Edwards.

There will be motorcycle parking on F Street.

Like the church's blessing of the animals in the Fall, the "bike blessing is a reminder to us of our obligation to care for God's creation - in this case by being closer to nature and limiting our carbon footprint in our transportation choices," Edwards said.

Worship begins at 10:10 am and will be followed by refreshments.  

Bethel United Church of Christ is located at 536 N Euclid Ave. at the corner of F and Euclid in downtown Ontario.  For more information, please call 909-984-9111 or email info@bethelucc-ontario.com.
