Ordained Motorcycle Club Chaplain Program
A structured pathway for bringing Christ-centered presence, prayer, and spiritual care into motorcycle club life, rider relationships, and biker community settings.
Are you called to bring Christ-centered presence, prayer, and spiritual care into motorcycle club life, rider relationships, and biker community settings where people need hope, wisdom, brotherhood, and compassionate support?
The Motorcycle Club Chaplain Ordination Program equips you with biblical, theological, and practical chaplaincy skills and provides a clear route to ordination and clergy credentialing through the Christian Leaders Alliance.Program PurposeA Motorcycle Club Chaplain is a volunteer or part-time minister who brings Christ-centered presence, prayer, and spiritual care into motorcycle club settings, rider communities, biker gatherings, and relational networks where people ride, connect, struggle, grieve, celebrate, and seek meaning.
Motorcycle club chaplaincy is ministry in a world shaped by brotherhood, loyalty, identity, freedom, hardship, road life, relationships, and real-life burdens. Chaplains may serve motorcycle clubs, riding groups, biker ministries, memorial rides, outreach gatherings, club events, and other approved rider contexts where spiritual care is welcomed.
They support people facing stress, grief, loss, conflict, trauma, family strain, addiction struggles, spiritual questions, life transitions, and moments of personal crisis.
Motorcycle Club Chaplains do not come as controllers, enforcers, or replacements for club leadership, pastors, counselors, or other authorities. They come as faithful servants of Jesus who offer calm presence, prayer, spiritual encouragement, biblical hope, and wise care within motorcycle club and rider settings. They enter these relationships with respect, humility, courage, and clarity, helping people feel heard, valued, and spiritually supported while honoring club culture, consent, confidentiality awareness, and wise ministry boundaries.
