Keith Foster is from Auburn, AL and part of the mastermind behind our ride. He served as the Missions Director at Auburn United Methodist and loves to cycle. “This is my 9th year cycling with Cycle of Service. We routinely partner with ARM for local projects. I have a great respect for ARM, believe in their staff, ad am fully committed to the work they do. Cycling has become my favorite pastime over the past several years, not only for the exercise, but I also enjoy the opportunity to see some beautiful places on our rides. | |
Mark Smith is a native of Alabama and has lived in the Auburn area for the last 3-1/2 years after joining Pharmavite as a purchasing professional. After a long span of not cycling, he has been riding regularly for the past two years. Riding in the Cycle of Service for the third time seems like the perfect opportunity to combine a love of cycling with service to the Lord. He looks forward to supporting ARM and their ministries to the community. | |
Scott Middleton, Auburn, AL. Scott is a pharmacist with Winn Dixie and also serves on the Board of Directors with Alabama Rural Ministry . Scott has a passion to help those end the cycle of poverty. Scott goes to Haiti every chance he gets to serve with those affected by the 2010 earthquake. You can usually find Scott in one of three places: home, work or on his bicycle. This is his 9th cycle of service ride! | |
Herb Rabren: “Why would any sane person ever ride a bicycle 245 miles in 3 days? I’m not a professional rider. I’m not being chased. For me, riding is a side note; bringing attention to and raising support for ARM by riding across the state is one way that I can help. I’ve participated with organizations like ARM in the past; hammering away, pouring concrete, cleaning up, and the like. I’ve always felt like I was the one blessed by helping others.” This is Herb’s fourth ride. | |
John Stevenson of Auburn, AL. He works at Milliken & Company. This is John’s sixth year to participate in the Cycle of Service. “I enjoy cycling, losing myself in the miles while being outside and taking in the scenery. There’s no better reason to ride for three days than to support ARM and help people out of poverty in Alabama. I look forward to the journey!” | |
Caroline Garner is from Cumming, GA recently obtained her Master’s Degree from Auburn University in Building Science. She works with Third Lens as a project manager. She has always been a runner (and ran a marathon in Cuba in November), but started riding two years ago when she started working with them at the church. “My heart is in mission work and I have been so blessed by the many times I have gotten to work with ARM over the years that I have been in Auburn. I love getting to meet all the people we serve and sharing the love of Christ through a little hard work. I’m excited to get to be a part of another ARM ministry.” This is her third ride. | |
“My name is Nicki Griffin and I live in Enterprise, Al with my husband and 4 kids. Not only am I a busy mom but I am also an avid cyclist with a passion to love and encourage others. I believe that every day we are given opportunities to be the hands of feet of Jesus and to make a difference in the lives of those around us. Cycling is one of my passions and so is missions. I love it when I can incorporate the 2 of them together. This is my 1st Cycle of Service and I am excited to get to cycle across Alabama while helping those in need.” | |
Tom Meagher is serving as a support driver and logging some miles along the way. | |
