Jesus Saves 5k Run

About the Event

Welcome to the First Baptist Church of Pharr

Jesus Saves 5K Run!

Here in South Texas, community means family. ❤️ That's why we're inviting everyone—runners, walkers, families, friends, and neighbors—to join us for a morning of faith, fellowship, and fun. 🏃 Whether you're aiming for a personal best, enjoying a walk with loved ones, or simply looking for a way to connect with your community, this event is for you.

Hosted by First Baptist Church of Pharr ⛪, the Jesus Saves 5K Run is more than a race—it's an opportunity to bring our community together through healthy living, service, and meaningful connections. We believe the church is more than a building; it's a place where people can find hope, encouragement, and a welcoming community.

Proceeds from this event will help support the outreach ministries of First Baptist Church of Pharr, allowing us to continue serving individuals and families throughout our community. By participating, you're helping us extend our mission beyond the walls of the church and into the neighborhoods we call home. 🤝

Whether you're a seasoned runner, a first-time participant, or simply coming to cheer on family and friends, you'll be welcomed with open arms. Together, we'll celebrate faith, community, and the love of Jesus Christ while creating lasting memories. ✝️

Thank you for being part of the First Baptist Church of Pharr Jesus Saves 5K Run. We look forward to welcoming you on race day as we run, walk, and grow together as one community. ❤️

We can't wait to see you at the starting line!
