Faith participates in Relay for Life

The Faith Lutheran ChurchTeam is signed-up for Relay For Life! Not sure what this HUGE, nationwide event is all about? Well, almost all of us have been touched by cancer in some way, so we've decided to make a difference by walking and raising money in the American Cancer Society Relay For Life event. Sign up, and at the event our team will camp out overnight and take turns walking around the track to raise money and awareness to help the American Cancer Society in the world’s largest fight for more birthdays. What a great way to let our lights shine for Jesus!
