Faith in Motion

Lace up your sneakers and put your faith in motion—literally! Whether you're a seasoned runner, a joyful jogger, or a “walk and worship” kind of soul, the Faith in Motion 5K is your chance to move your body, lift your spirit, and join a community of people who aren’t afraid to run their race—with purpose.

This isn't just a 5K. It's a celebration of faith, fitness, and fellowship. Set against the backdrop of uplifting music, encouraging scripture signs along the path, and high-fives from our faith squad volunteers, every step you take reminds you: God is with you, stride by stride.

Event Features:
• Chip-timed 5K run/walk
• Faith-fueled finish line celebration
• Finisher medals + opportunity to buy T-shirts
• Family-friendly & stroller-welcome!

• We’d like to honor the participants who show us the span of generations represented today — our Trailblazer, who reminds us of endurance and strength, and our Rising Star, who inspires us with youthful energy.

Whether you're running to honor your journey, walking to pray for someone you love, or just want to show the world that faith still moves—this race is for YOU.
