Run for the Son
April 19 | 8:00 am - 10:00 am
Saturday, April 19
8:00 a.m.
Lace up your running shoes and start preparing for Run for the Son! The event will feature a 5K Run, 5K Walk, and Joy Run for kids, all on a new race course this year.
The 5K Run and 5K Walk will begin at 8:00 a.m. with the Joy Run beginning at 8:30 a.m. This year, the race will start on President Street between the sanctuary and the Capitol. The Joy Run will run around the Capitol building. Activities will be available for the kids on the Capitol grounds with inflatables, followed by an Easter Egg Hunt after the races are completed.
This year, we will be honoring Dr. Lee Cope. He and his family have such a passion for reaching the world with the Gospel, and this year’s proceeds from the event will go to the Go Fund at First Baptist Jackson, helping send missionaries locally and abroad to spread the Good News.
Cost for the 5K Run or Walk is $25 with the Joy Run being $10.
