St. Thomas Lutheran Church 150th Anniversary 5K Run/Walk

About the Event

Celebrating our 150th Anniversary with our community and friends is an honor--it is because of your love and support that we have achieved this milestone. One of our events is a 5k Run/Walk as a means of celebrating and bringing us together for a fun time.

We have designed a race logo for this event commemorating this special milestone! Our logo includes a grapevine (symbolism meaning honor God first), our church celebration, a halo (symbol of light and grace given directly by God), wings (used to depict heaven, freedom, movement, dreams, traveling and even intelligence and wisdom), and the race information.

Please check out our logo below!
