LIFECYCLES

LIFECYCLES builds young men & women of character in a Christ-centered bicycle touring adventure program. The LIFECYCLES experience builds crucial life skills.

LIFECYCLES teens are loved unconditionally, encouraged, challenged, empowered, and supported in an environment of trust, accountability, and responsibility designed to build confidence, hope, life skills, and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. LIFECYCLES leaders make the promise offered in the book of Hebrews: “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” In exchange, we ask LIFECYCLES teens

to be faithful, available, and teachable. The LIFECYCLES experience engages teens in a habitual routine
- Monday evenings the girls’ team meets for riding and mentoring
- Tuesdays and Thursday evenings are for team training rides, a meal and mentoring
- Saturdays are for longer, scenic rides to build miles and self-confidence through achievement....with meals and more mentoring.
- Summers include a week long trip to continue to build confidence and change lives through leadership development, service, teamwork, and dreaming, all while seeing the country. Mentoring builds skills in money management, the value of nutrition and fitness, and in engaging effectively with authority figures. Mentoring and encouragement builds the desire to stay in school, find post high school employment, or apply for a vocational school or college. Boys and girls are encouraged, challenged, and lifted up in an optimistic, hopeful environment. The entire LIFECYCLES experience and all the associated gear, meals, transportation, and mentoring is free of charge.

“This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it!”
Psalm 118:24

Beautiful, remote forests and farmlands of northern Lancaster and southern Lebanon counties presented themselves to us this morning for a joyful and scenic ride together.

Strong and focused girls and boys rode 25-, 36-, and 45-mile routes safely and with perseverence.

Many thanks to the adult volunteer riders who give their time and mentoring to build relationships and provide the encouragement that makes these unforgettable Saturday rides possible!

…. LIFECYCLES is canceled tonight. The heat index is over 100, so instead of riding, we can go fry an egg on the hood of our cars.

Secondarily, WGAL projects a wall of thunderstorms hitting the area at about the time we would finish our ride, on their predictive radar.

Our motto is DO HARD THINGS, not DO DUMB THINGS.

Also, note that there IS NO RIDE NEXT TUESDAY, JUNE 16, as the park is reserved for a large event.

Stay cool. Stay safe.

Springtime in Lancaster is a blessing. Green fields and blue skies remind us of the LIFECYCLES colors all around Landisville, Salunga, Marietta, Bainbridge, Stackstown, and Maytown.

We’re grateful to Jeff and Nancy Bradley’s Koinonia Sunday School class from First United Methodist Church in Lancaster for a great meal of bbq, baked beans, Mack and cheese, fresh fruit, and cupcakes!
