Tampa Bikers To Receive Holy Blessing

As an avid motorcyclist and Harley owner, getting my bike blessed has always been the norm for me. I usually always do it when I buy a new bike. It’s my way of asking the good Lord to protect me and my wife from the perils encountered while riding in the Tampa Bay Area. So, when I heard about this “blessing of the bikes”… I knew I was going.

According to the church’s website, the Pastor of Christ Our Redeemer Lutheran Church will be holding a Blessing Of The Bike’s coming up on Saturday, February 22 at 10am. There will also be a free continental breakfast.

The church is located at 304 Druid Hills Road in Temple Terrace (two blocks east of 56th Street between Busch Boulevard and Fowler Avenue).
