Join us on the 'Murray & Mountains' ride so we can transform lives through literacy! Challenge yourself to ride up to 700km and raise funds to support the Bible-based Literacy project in Colombia.
When? 18th - 24th April 2027
Where? All 6 days of riding will start and finish at Albury Presbyterian Church, Lavington NSW.
How much? $400 on-road costs for riders and roadies (includes jersey).
If you would like to only do part of the ride then the on-road costs are $60 per day (+$40 jersey).
Why are we riding?
Bible Society Australia is supporting the Colombian Bible Society in collaborating with local churches, SIL Global and other ministries to provide literacy training for the Nasa people, addressing their need to learn literacy, especially among women.
This project is also meeting the need for Christians in this community who are non-literate to read and understand the Bible which has been newly translated in their language, Nasa Yuwe.
This project aims to empower personal growth, community wellbeing, as well as facilitate engagement with God’s Word for spiritual development.
Will you help us turn on the light of literacy for disadvantaged families today?
