ROANOKE, VA – With bikes, boldness, and a message rooted in faith, Empty Tomb Motorcycle Ministry is revving up to take a stand against bullying—and push for change across Virginia.
On Friday, August 2nd, the ministry will host its Ride & Cruise-In Against Bullying at Villa Heights Baptist Church from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event will feature a bike ride, cruise-in, vendors, door prizes, and more—all aimed at raising awareness and supporting anti-bullying legislation.
The anti-bullying mission began after 10-year-old Autumn Bushman, took her own life.
Autumn’s story deeply impacted the group.
Since then, members have and committed to advocacy rooted in the Bible, Luke 6:31: “Treat others the way you want to be treated.”
Registration is $20 per bike (rider included) or $20 per cruise-in vehicle. Proceeds will go toward anti-bullying advocacy in our area.
