“I love the Green Door 5K event. I have participated in it each year since its inception, even driving 3.5 hours from College Station the morning of last year's event in order to be there. It is a great way to introduce our community to the ministry of Children's Relief International. More importantly, through it's efforts, you help feed the hungry and house the homeless. It is a wonderful event to be a part of!”
Jason Wiesepape, Associate Pastor, Grace Bible Church, College Station
"Last year I did the 1 mile fun run, which was a blast. The weather is great at that time of year and the crowd size is big enough to be fun and competitive without spending 30 minutes walking to your car afterwards. It's also awesome to see how spending a morning with your local community can have such an impact on the other side of the world. I'd encourage anyone with an interest in running, missions or both to get involved."
Joshua Cochran, Software Engineer, Rockwall
"The Green Door 5K is a great families because they can participate in a community event while help others around the world."
"It feels really great to be involved in the Green Door 5K because you know that your contributions are going directly to buy building materials or food for someone who desperately needs it. The live music and the park really make for a fun race atmosphere. It's amazing to me that people running a race in Texas can have an eternal impact on poor people across the world in Mozambique and India. It's just a really fun race benefiting a really important cause and I'm so excited to be a part of it."
Kristen Schweers, Teacher at Utley Middle School, Rockwall

Change the life of someone like Luis

You can help people like Luis by being a part of the Green Door 5K & Fun Run in Rockwall, TX March 24th.
My name is Luis Antonio and I have been blind from birth. I live with my two children and wife in Mandruzi. I do not have wealth, I make crafts at the Cooperative Association for the Disabled. I am trying to make a better life for my family so I am going to school. I would love to have a house for my family as I know it can provide them safety even if something were to happen to me. I am afraid I will never have enough resources to make this dream come true. I’m trusting God and praying for a miracle as I work hard and do the best I can to provide for my loved ones.
