Dear Friends,
Each year, the Second Summer Cycle event becomes more than a bicycle ride. It becomes a moving testament to compassion, community, and the sacred work of reminding every person that their life has immeasurable worth. As we pedal together in support of Sharing Kindness and their mission - to reduce suicide risk, support those who struggle, companion the bereaved, and nurture health and wellness in our community - we embody the very hope we wish to spread.
Your participation - whether through joining us in the ride, donating, or cheering from the sidelines - helps ensure that no one walks through darkness alone. Every mile traveled and every dollar raised strengthens the programs that bring connection, education, and healing to those who need it most.
May our efforts this year be guided by grace, fueled by love, and rooted in the belief that kindness can change lives. Thank you for being part of this mission and helping light the way for others.
Rev. Darren L. Morgan, Pastor, The Federated Church of Orleans
