I saved money for college during high school assembling and repairing bicycles. This was during the bicycle boom of the 1970's. I've done it off and on as a hobby since then, so I have a lot of experience. I started commuting 10 miles each way to work a few years ago when gas prices hit $4/gallon. I completely rebuilt a Trek cross bike, and then upgraded to a Trek road bike.
Anyway, because it's fun, I offer bicycle tune-ups for only $10 plus the cost of any needed parts. All proceeds go to charity. The charity I'm working on now is to save money to replace the boiler heating system in our church with a more energy efficient one. I figure that if I can get more people riding bicycles, that will save some CO2 emissions, and if I can use the proceeds for a more efficient heating system, then that will save the planet even more. Of course the work of our church is to save peoples souls which are even more important than our planet.
By the way, if your looking for a good Bible believing church in Kokomo check out Bible Baptist.

An excellent idea that I want to take you up on. However, you might want to double check either your spelling or the church's doctrinal statement. ;-) It did remind me of other groups / doctors that do focus on saving souls thru saving soles.
ReplyDeleteI must have mis-read your post. Ignore my previous post. I must have been thinking too much about my soles when I should have been focusing on other souls myself.
