(Whitney Point, Hamilton, NY – Sept. 2015) St Malachy’s Church youth group participated in a five day youth bike tour this summer, thanks to bikes provided by Community Bikes.
‘Evangelization on Wheels’ was hosted by St. Patrick and St. Stephen’s churches in Whitney Point. The event attracted youth groups from throughout the state. More than a dozen youngsters from St. Malachy’s, along with advisers, were able to participate.
“We are grateful to Community Bikes for the loan of bikes for this event,” said Catherine Albertine, Director of Youth Ministry. “The trip was a wonderful experience for our youth, several of whom would not have been able to join in without the help of Community Bikes.”
Community Bikes, based in Hamilton, collects and refurbishes donated bicycles and places them with families who would otherwise not have access to a bike.
