Join us for 40 Laps of Faith, a health challenge that combines faith-based fitness with movement, prayer, fellowship, and reflection.
This is not a race.
This is an opportunity to step away from the busyness of life, engage your body, spend time in prayer, encourage others, and challenge yourself one lap at a time.
Together we will walk approximately 40 laps or 2 hours around the studio grounds while enjoying conversation, prayer, and fellowship with others who are dedicated to a God-centered healthy lifestyle. This event is part of our community events focused on spiritual and physical wellness.
After the walk, we'll gather around the bonfire for a simple cookout.
Registration Includes:
Participation in the 40 Laps of Faith Challenge
Prayer and reflection experience
Fellowship and encouragement
Bonfire and cookout
Handcrafted event-specific Prayer Thumbprint - Each participant will receive a unique Prayer Thumbprint created specifically for this event, serving as a reminder of their achievement and the truth: "He is the Potter. We are the clay."
This isn't a race—it's a precious opportunity to slow down, connect with others in our Emerge events, and take intentional steps toward a healthier life, with Christ at the center.
Children may walk with a registered parent at no cost.
Parents and siblings are encouraged to participate.
Families joining us for the bonfire and cookout afterward are invited to make a small donation toward food expenses.
Why Walk?
Because stewardship matters.
God has entrusted each of us with a body to care for, strengthen, and use for His purposes. The healthier we become, the better equipped we are to fulfill His calling and serve others.
This challenge isn't about speed.
It's about faithfulness.
One lap.
One prayer.
One step at a time.
