In 2003, KFM organized and affiliated with a national biker ministry from Waterford Michigan called HIM or Hogs in Ministry. Our vision is to become known in the Southwest Michigan area as one of the “biker friendly churches”. We do this through four avenues…

Service and Support

Over the past four years, our growing HIM chapter has participated in and supported numerous charitable bike rides through our attendance, donations and volunteerism in order to support their worthy causes.

Annual Black Hills Trip

We have also taken three consecutive trips together in order to attend the Black Hills rally. These have been incredible trips where we have grown in our love for the beauty of God’s wonderful creation.

Annual Outreach Services

Our HIM chapter, in cooperation with the Kalamazoo Free Methodist Church (our supporting church), will annually host the “Biker Day” event in August. Through this event we have shared the wonderful message of Real Life through having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. What a joy to see a number of people making commitments to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior each year and who are participating in the life of the church. Of course many other activities occur during this event... food (pig roast), a ride, music, ministry and much more.

Spiritual Growth and Service Opportunities

We offer a variety of fellowship, service and spiritual growth opportunities throughout the year to anyone, HIM member or not, who would like to fellowship with us. We have a weekly Bible Study together, monthly HIM meetings for our Members, numerous local rides as well as the CHANGE Bible Study class which is the membership path for people who want to affiliate with our HIM chapter.
