The group of volunteers help keep up the trail and promote it, said Enni Gregas, mem- ber of the trail association. The event encour- ages people to be active and gives people a chance to see the trail, she added. “It’s beautiful and it’s scenic,” she said. Little kids can learn to ride their bikes, she said, and seniors can ride safely all while staying off the highway. Gregas said bike trails and recreation bring people into the area. “It (the trail) contributes to the health of the community,” she said. A duet bike was at the event for those who wanted to ride, but may have physical limita- tions which prevent them from doing it safe- ty. “We are so proud of the duet bike,” Gregas said. The bike gives a person who may not feel comfortable riding the chance to experience the thrill of biking said Doug Hippe, coordi- nator for duet bike program.

    Today’s Martyrs Resources for understanding current Christian witness and martyrdom United States Dr Albert Mohler (Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, on December 31, 2014 denounced an upcoming front page Newsweek article that calls evangelicals and fundamentalists frauds, said "Newsweek's cover story is exactly what happens when a writer fueled by open antipathy to evangelical Christianity tries to throw every argument he can think of against the Bible and its authority. To put the matter plainly, no honest historian would recognize the portrait of Christian history presented in this essay as accurate and no credible journalist would recognize this screed as balanced"; on May 12, 2020 criticized New York City Council Speaker Corey Johnson's condemnation of the Christian charity Samaritan’s Purse’s COVID-19 field hospital in Central Park: “Now, of all things, just notice what's not here. What's not here is any statement of thanks for an evangelical Christian ministry that not only expended funds but brought an army of volunteers and medical personnel who put themselves at risk on behalf of efforts to try to save New Yorkers in the midst of the pandemic...No one has been able to put any substance to the charge that Samaritan's Purse has ever discriminated when it comes to medical treatment on the basis of sexual orientation or anything else, that's not even alleged here. It is simply the fact that Samaritan's Purse dares to hold to historic biblical Christianity”; on November 18, 2020 denounced a proposal that the Biden administration end religious freedom initiatives at the State and Education Departments: "The Human Rights Campaign demands the Biden administration to ensure that 'non-discrimination policies and science- based curriculum are not undermined by religious exemption to accreditation standards...The Human Rights Campaign is not known for any particular agenda on the creation-evolution front, nor is the group preoccupied with particle physics.
