Hope everyone is having a blessed summer, running or walking during the cooler parts of the day and staying well-hydrated! We have a couple exciting races coming up, so we know many of you are currently offering up training runs for unborn children and their awesome moms, an end to abortion, and a greater respect for all human life. As we strive to build the Culture of Life every day, we thank God for the gifts of prayer, love, truth, mercy, and life!

LR Las Vegas 2015 Desert LogoAs of August 15, we’re exactly three months away from our annual marathon. We had a great showing at the Air Force marathon last fall (200 LIFE Runners!), and we’re looking forward to an invigorating run and prayerful witness at the Las Vegas Marathon/Half Marathon/10K/5K, November 14-15. Our theme is Prayer in the Desert: “I fed you in the wilderness, in the parched land” (Hosea 13:5), with the Desert Song offering some good lyrics for reflection. See you in Vegas!

LIFE Runners Creed

MOTHER-of-LIFEcropped-COPYRIGHT-2010-Nellie-EdwardsToday we pray that women will cherish the gift of motherhood, and that men will protect their families. Let us pray: “We believe in the dignity of all human life from conception to natural death. We run as a Prayer, to defend children in the womb, so that they may be born and united with our Christian community. We run to build Endurance, for the race is long and we must keep our eyes fixed on You Lord. We run for Awareness, so our culture will view all human life as a reflection of Your glory Lord. We run for Charity, to provide support for mothers and fathers tempted to abort their child, and healing support for post-abortion women, men and families. We run to End abortion, for Christ died so that all may live. Guard us all, born and unborn, with Your PEACE, Lord. For in You, life is victorious. We pray and run in Your name, Jesus Christ. Amen.”
