Thank
you for your interest in Olive Mount Bowhunters, a chapter of
Christian Bowhunters of America (CBA) in the South central
Pennsylvania area. CBA is a national organization, which exists
mainly in the form of local chapters such as Olive Mount
Bowhunters.
Olive Mount Bowhunters was the dream of two good friends Greg Gearhart and Dave Baechtle, who were both members of CBA and desired to use their favorite activity, bowhunting, to spread the news of Jesus Christ. Organizations such as CBA provide the framework for Christians with similar life-interests to come together to encourage one another and to inject Christ into a segment of our culture that may otherwise never hear the Gospel. Christian hunters already spend a lot of time either hunting, getting ready to hunt, talking about previous hunts, or looking forward to future hunts. CBA simply allows us to bring our passion for Christ and our passion for bowhunting into the same arena. It allows us to enjoy and pursue the sport of bowhunting and its associated activities in a wholesome environment centered around our faith. It also provides the opportunity to use the great sport of bowhunting, which we all love and spend much time at, as a method to make contact with our pre-Christian friends. We try to accomplish this by offering interesting and non-threatening activities that will allow our members to bring their pre-Christian friends into contact with Christians and at which we can present the Gospel message. Some events that we have sponsored, attended, or would like to be involved with include:
|
Hold our own 3-D shoots. |
