The Amazing Grace Race

On June 13, St. Charles Christian Church held its first Amazing Grace Race. The day was filled with lots of teamwork, grace, faith, fun, and HEAT as it was all out in the great outdoors!

Twenty-seven teams participated and '“raced” around New Town for two hours. Activities included catching fish, picking up trash, packing an Operation Christmas Child box, completing a Bible photo scavenger hunt, making handmade cards, and creating a family mission statement.

Each team had a team gnome, which most had named and decorated, that traveled the race course along with the team. Upon completion, everyone was treated to a prize gift bag, sno cone coupons, food, and the Bubble Bus.

The event was funded by the congregation’s annual Duck Race, and may become a yearly addition to their calendar as well!

Thanks to Rev. Chris Franklin for this information and photos.
