Default Next ER Stops Waco & Abilene

After a break in Austin, our Equality Riders will be at Baylor University in Waco on April 6th. Then on to Hardin Simmons University Apr 7-8 in Abilene and a return again, to Abilene Christian University on April 9th.

As our riders continue to travel this most amazing journey, we continue to keep them in prayer.

Quote:
Spirit of the living God, who longs to gather all your children together as one family, strengthen our passion for welcoming and loving all people, especially those who are marginalized and excluded. We particularly ask you to be with our Equality Riders as they travel this land to bring the truth of your love to those who would deny us, our rights, our love, our very existence.

We acknowled you by many names and we also know the reality that following your will, may at times, involve suffering, tears and struggle. Give us strength and comfort us as we strive to do your will, remind us always that we are not alone or far from your care. Empower us to persist in your way of love, justice and peace. We pray this in your many names. Amen.

If you're in Waco be sure to check out the Dr Pepper Museum. It has a talkling robot pharmacy soda fountain guy. Also lots of memorbilia. And free samples. Fun for Pepper fans all over!!!!!!!!!

Also you can check out the Texas Ranger museum. Life size dioramas of Rangers in action. Also old weapons and uniforms and stuff from the War Between the States up to the present day.
Remind me to tell y'all the story about some of my ancestors being on the wrong side of the law opposite the Rangers.

Thanks for the suggestions, but these rides are so tightly regulated according to a very, very busy agenda, there's never any "down" time for them. So just keep them in your prayers.

Y'all should schedule in some down-time. Nobody can be "on" all the time.
These folks go all over the place and have to deal with all kinds of b.s. .
It would be good for them to have a couple of hours of doofus roadside attraction time or frisbee at the rest stop time.
