We had a fantastic time at the 3rd annual Amazing Race! We kicked the night off with registration. It was awesome to have such a great participation. In fact, we had enough students to form 26 teams! Next, we ate lots of ice cream sundaes! As everyone ate together, the Amazing Race teams were being formed. The teams were then announced and unleashed into the community on a special mission.
The teams only had 1 hour to go into the neighborhoods asking people for non-perishable food items to help the Care Center. The Care Center is located right next to our church and helps people everyday. Each item that the teams accrued were worth a certain amount of points. The teams were challenged to get as much and as many of it as they could. The more each team got, the better chance they had of winning 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, and the more people that would be helped.
Once everyone arrived they unloaded items and turned in scores. We ended the night by announcing the winners and worshipping God through song and the Word. A special thanks goes to the kids for working so hard, the adults for driving, and those who shared from their cupboards. May God get the Glory!
