Emergency Services Center for Sturgis Rally Week
The Departments of Evangelism of the American Baptist Churches of Nebraska and the Dakotas have teamed up in each of the last 23 years to minister at the annual gathering of over 400,000 people in Sturgis, South Dakota for Bike Week.
Volunteers from around the world spend all or part of the week helping, feeding, transporting, and counseling the dozens of individuals who come to the ABCESC for assistance. Throughout the week calls come in at all hours of the day and night from churches, police and rescue workers, and individuals wanting us to help men, women, and children in need. Rapid City has become a strategic base of operations as transportation to the hospitals, rescue mission, bus station, and airport is provided.
In addition to the two regions and their churches, the Christian Motorcyclists Association, the Hellfighters Mission at the Cross, the Bond Slaves Cycle Club, the Cornerstone Mission in Rapid City, and the Artemis House in Spearfish provide invaluable assistance.
Volunteers don’t need to be motorcyclists, but ought to have a heart for evangelism and a willingness to serve. Women volunteers are especially needed due to the large percentage of women and children that we end up assisting. If you can come for all or part of the week we can find a job for you!
