Covenant Teens to Bike, Witness Coast to Coast
SAN DIEGO, CA (June 2, 2001) - A trio of Illinois Covenant teens are embarking on their own spiritual journey, albeit on wheels.
Karl Brorson, Peter Frost and Dan Fernandez traveled from Chicago to San Diego for the start of a 35-day bike trip from coast to coast. The trip, which began June 3, is scheduled to be completed July 8 in Jacksonville, Florida. The trio hopes to average around 100 miles per day.
The three students attend Wheaton Academy in Wheaton, Illinois. Frost, who attends Faith Covenant Church in Wheaton, and Fernandez recently graduated from high school. Brorson, who attends Naperville Covenant Church, recently finished his junior year of high school.
Daily devotions and witnessing are part of the game plan, according to Jon Brorson, Karl's father. He said that the idea of a coast-to-coast bike trip caught the trio's interest partly because of their involvement with the Wheaton-based Adventures in Student Missions, a non-denominational organization.
