Description
Join the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina as we Race for Grace to support youth and young adult ministries in the diocese. The money raised from this event will support Camp Henry, Youth Ministries and College Ministries and will be used for scholarships and programs.
The race will take place through the entire Advent season and we invite you all to join us by walking, running, strolling, or rolling as we raise money to support ministries for and with young people. There will not be one day that the event takes place. Instead, we invite you to choose a day during Advent to participate, in either the a 5k run/walk or the 1 mile fun run/walk, at your own pace. Please take a photo of you Racing for Grace and post it to social media with the hashtag #RaceforGraceWNC.
Race to Grace wants to offer you a way to connect deeper with our faith, so as part of the event you will receive a copy of the Advent devotional Keep Watch With Me: An Advent Reader for Peacemakers. Keep Watch With Me offers stories, reflections, prayers, and spiritual practices to sustain and challenge the faith of those who work for justice and peace, and long for the coming of God with us. We hope that this devotion will inspire you to connect your needs with the needs of the world as we wait and watch for the coming of our Lord.
