Bike for Bibles originated in 1984 in Australia with three cyclists, and it now takes place in many countries, including Canada. Money to provide Bibles for those without the Word of God is raised through the sponsorship of cyclists. By participating in Bike for Bibles, people of all ages, walks of life, and denominations can achieve fitness, fun and fellowship with a Christian purpose.

Each year...

• Funds are raised for Bible distribution and translation projects
• Countless numbers of Bibles are placed in waiting hands
• God's Word speaks to people's hearts and changes lives

The 2009 Bike for Bibles ride will be in support of Scripture resources for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver. The Canadian Bible Society will be distributing New Testaments, the Gospel of Mark, and the Book of Hope youth magazine to thousands of people at the games because...

• It's important for the next generation to become engaged with God's Word and the Olympics is a perfect venue for doing this.
• There are many countries where God's Word is not readily available. Since Canadians have this opportunity, we would like to make Scripture resources available to people visiting Canada for the Olympics.
• People's faith will be encouraged when they read the testimonies of Christian athletes participating in the Olympic Games - being highlighted in all of the materials distributed.

By riding or sponsoring a cyclist you can support the distribution of God's Word in Canada and the world. We appreciate your interest as we work to end Bible poverty for millions of people who still wait for even one book of the Bible.
