Pastor Aaron Grefer, rides with his son Isaac, 5, around the lawn of the Corinth Bible Church as Caleb Grefer, 1, left, watches after having the dirt bike blessed in Corinth Center last month.

It was the second year the church held a blessing of the bikes in conjunction with the Holy Rollers chapter of the Christian Motorcyclists Association to pray for safety on the road and that the machines keep running well.

Attendance was dampened by rain at both events, but Henry Ilsley, the Holy Rollersโ€™ Road Captain, expects the event to grow in attendance in future years.

โ€œIโ€™ve started enough things to know that it doesnโ€™t always happen the first time,โ€ he said. โ€œOr the second time.โ€
