About Us

(cont'd from About Us page 2)

We believe God is asking Emil to lay down secular work. Since returning from Colorado, God has shown us on a daily basis the demands of this ministry. Specifically, that pastoring the 150 members of the Mesa CMA Chapter is in itself a full-time job. To effectively minister and evangelize while working another job is impossible. His chaplaincy to the chapter is an unpaid position that entails facilitating the ongoing prayer chain, leading a weekly home group at our house, preparing a message for the monthly meeting, writing an article for the bi-monthly newsletter, visiting hospitalized bikers, answering calls and emails for prayer and counseling, as well as both of us meeting several evenings a week with those who have needs (we call this our Starbucks Ministry!). We don't have enough hours in the day to follow up with those to whom we minister. Emil is also a state CMA speaker authorized to conduct Sunday services at secular and Christian rallies and events. He has had to pass up many opportunities to preach the Word.

We believe with all that is within us that God has called us full-time to this mission field. Our ministry is beyond the boundaries of the four walls of the church and extends to the highways and the byways of motorcycle rallies and events, wherever the Lord leads.

In September 2003 we both started ISOM, International School of Ministry, in order to become fully licensed and ordained through our church, City in the Desert Metro Church, affiliated with Harvest International Ministries. Our pastor, Michael Niva, is fully behind this ministry and wants to send a team from our church with us the first time we go out. This is exciting and encouraging to us.

If God is leading you to partner with us, prayerfully or financially, please contact us. We are deeply grateful for the covering prayer of intercessors and for financial support. All contributions are tax deductible and a year end receipt is provided.

In His Love,
Emil and Karen Liko
