Church Army paves way for 2 Wheel Trek in Somerset for Monica and Al

When Monica Abdala came across a team from Church Army for the first time, little did she realise it would lead to a cycle ride of over 50 miles over a weekend in the Blackdown Hills, Somerset.

Monica, from Chadwell Heath attends Cranbrook Rd Baptist Church in Ilford and was one of around 300 people who entered a free competition at the Church Army stand at this year’s Christian Resources Exhibition in Sandown. Less than 4 weeks later, courtesy of www.2wheeltreks.co.uk Monica and her husband Al, joined a party of 9 for a weekend’s cycling in the beautiful setting of Somerset/Devon border country.

Monica commented: “It was a fantastic weekend, the weather was glorious and we met a really good group of people. After cycling in the day, we had some thoughtful bible study in the evenings. Al and I discovered cycling skills we didn’t know we had “. Husband Al added: “It was fantastic, we have never done anything like this before and we really enjoyed it. We have three children and we are seriously looking into setting up a cycling holiday for the whole family next time.”
