Mark a Yeaton

Elephant on the Menu Mark a Yeaton

Mark Yeaton knew he was going to ride his bike across the country 25 years before he accomplished the feat. Other things in life were more a priority. He and his wife, Sherry were busy raising a family, teaching, and being youth sponsors in their church. As a follower of Jesus Christ, Mark and his family believe that living a life that is Christ-centered is what motivates them to take their skills and use them in ways that bring honor to Jesus by helping those in need locally and worldwide. Mark still rides his bike to work, as he has done for the past 30 years. He says he looks forward to riding his bike each day as much as his students look forward to recess. On the bike Mark has time to pray, ponder, and plan other ways to use his joy of cycling to bring glory to God. Enjoy the journey Mark took pedaling across America during sizzling summer of 2012, the third hottest summer in US history. While Mark was on his bicycle, his wife Sherry, and their son Kendall had adventures and experiences of their own as his support crew. May readers of this book be inspired to seek out ways to minister to others, using whatever talents and passions they have been blessed with as gifts from God.
