Running the Race: What a great day

Running the Race

 

What a great day it was at Strathclyde Park on 17th September!

We’re grateful to Linda Fabiani MSP for starting our sponsored 10K race which saw 150 runners raising money for MAF and four of our partners who work with us in Africa. The race was the centrepiece of the Running the Race event which also had a lively family fun day and a Roadshow presentation which showcased the work of MAF in South Sudan.   The winner ran the 10K in just over 38 minutes which was his personal best and has set a high standard for next year!

The event was a great opportunity for MAF volunteers to work together with volunteers from AIM, Wycliffe, Open Doors and CBM. We are so grateful to these faithful volunteers who helped organise the day and who enthusiastically told the MAF story to all the visitors who came to the exhibition vehicle and display aircraft. It was good to meet with people who haven’t heard about MAF before and to see their amazement as they hear of all the work that is done for God’s Kingdom through the use of our aircraft.

Running the Race has been the biggest event in the calendar for MAF in Scotland and it has been voted a great success.
