Race for Grace

Forty-four people participated in Sunday's Race For Grace 5K sponsored by the Waitsburg Christian Church to raise funds for a May 2018 service trip to help Embracing Orphans in Jamaica. Two participants were "virtual racers;" Carol Clarke and Diane Fortune participated from Cuidad de Saber in Panama. Participants ranged in age from 7 to 78 and raised approximately $500 toward the trip. The event was coordinated by Sandra Farley, and many volunteers manned the route and helped set up road blocks.

April Brown brought her two children, Kenroy and Oneisha, who are adopted from Jamaica. Their grandmother is Lori Dyer. The family has previously served on Embracing Orphans mission trips.
