Jerry "Eskimo" Quinn *Chapter President*
Testimony:
I praise Jesus for all He has done for me and my family. I was raised
in a somewhat different manner than most. My mother was a “flower
child”.
When I was about 8 years old, my parents ran a pizza shop in
Connecticut. The parking lot had two building in it. One was the pizza
shop and the other was a local outlaw motorcycle club. This is where I
also got my first motorcycle ride.
I got my first leather biker jacket at around 10 years old and at about
14 things really started going south for me. I found drugs before I
started experimenting with alcohol. This would be a problem I carried
for the next 20 years. To make a long story short I had “experimented”
with everything at the time except heroin. Needles to say, this didn’t
do much for my brain cells due to the fact by the time I was 18 I also
found a real liking for alcohol.
In 1982 I married my wife who had 2 children already. Well between
substance abuse and no God in my life I really did a bang up job raising
2 kids.
Things hit an all time low in 1994 which is what brought me to Christ.
At the time I was saved I only new of two things to do. One was
motorcycles and the other was music (did I mention I play guitar and
have been in a couple of bands). Anyway I started playing for the
worship team and started looking for some type of ministry work around
motorcycles. That took another three years to happen but God most
certainly has a plan. To make another long story short, I was watching
the evening news one day and a Promise Keepers in D.C. was on. They were
having a gathering on the first weekend of October and this was almost
the end of September. I told my wife “I’m going to that and I’m riding
my bike down”. She thought I was nuts and tried talking me out of it
with things like “ you don’t know anyone down there” or “ where are you
going to find a place this late in the game”. Well God has a plan
because this is where I met the Sons of God MC. On a side note the day I
left for D.C. it was 27 degrees outside. That was in 1997 and I’ve been
involved in the Sons ever since. Praise God.
