Racing for Shelby Help Line Ministries

This motocross season, I'm racing with a purpose beyond the finish line.

I'm raising support for Shelby Help Line Ministries, a Christian-based organization that serves individuals and families throughout the Shelby community during difficult seasons of life.

One of the reasons I chose Shelby Help Line is because they combine practical help with genuine care for people. Whether someone needs food assistance, help with utilities, clothing, school supplies, community meals, medical equipment, or simply someone to point them toward resources and hope, Shelby Help Line is there to help.

As a pastor and longtime member of this community, I've seen firsthand how important local ministries like this can be. They step into real situations and help real people right here in our own backyard. They serve our neighbors, our coworkers, our classmates, and the families we pass every day.

Motocross has been a hobby my family and I have enjoyed for years. This season, I wanted to use that hobby as an opportunity to give back. Throughout the 2026 racing season, I'll be raising awareness and support for Shelby Help Line Ministries while competing at local events across North Central Ohio.

My planned race schedule includes:

• June 13 – Mansfield Speedway (Mansfield, OH)
• June 27 – Crossroads MX (New London, OH)
• July 25 – Crossroads MX (New London, OH)
• August 14 – Richland County Fair Race (Mansfield, OH)
• October 24 – Crossroads MX (New London, OH)

At each race, I'll be looking for opportunities to share the mission of Shelby Help Line Ministries and invite others to support the work they are doing in our community.

My goal is to raise $1,000 during the 2026 motocross season.

Would you consider partnering with me?

Every gift, whether it's $10, $25, $50, or more, helps support a ministry that is meeting practical needs and offering hope to people throughout the Shelby area. If you're unable to give financially, sharing this fundraiser with others is another great way to help.

Thank you for supporting Shelby Help Line Ministries and helping turn a motocross season into an opportunity to serve our community.

Together, we can help meet needs, encourage families, and demonstrate the love of Christ right here in Shelby.
