This fall our friends at Love146 celebrate their 10 year anniversary and our locally based Ride,Run,Walk 4 Love event celebrates its 5 Year Anniversary.

Since 2008, the RRW4L has raised near $150,000 to end the trafficking and exploitation of children globally through the work of Love146.  Terra has been instrumental in the success of this local, grass roots, mercy and justice initiative.  Terra people help organize the event and our church is a Corporate sponsor.  Terra has historically led the way, fielding the largest team (upwards of 70-80 participants and volunteers!) and raising the most money for Love146 (over $10,000 annually!).  We’ve also had a lot of fun and have a lot of great stories (like the time Eric Westervelt got lost and rode his bike up a giant mountain).

RRW4L is also a great annual expression of worship, acknowledging and celebrating God’s heart for the oppressed and a way to missionally reflect Christ to friends and family who might not know Him.

September 22nd is this year’s date.  Early discounted registration  is open and there are a number of ways to join the event.  You can walk or run the 5K. You can ride your bike 15 or 30 miles.  There is a special kids ride.  This year, there is also a special 100 mile ride with Love146 founder Rob Morris and Love146 staff to celebrate both anniversaries!  Participants pay a registration fee and donate or raise at least $146 through an on line fundraising platform. Everyone get’s a goodie bag, t-shirt and lunch from Dinosaur BBQ.  If you are not up for the work out, there are numerous opportunities to volunteer.

If you have been part of Team Terra Nova in the past please join in again!  If you are new to Terra or have not had a chance to participate in the past, jump in with us!
