Run, Austin Agape, Run!



Did you know. . .

that our very own Byron French is running a mini-marathon?






And that our very own Shane Webb is running a full marathon?

On February 14th, bright and early in the morning, Byron and Shane are running to raise money for Manos de Cristo. Manos is a ministry that does tremendous work in Austin. UPC has many connections there: Kate Norman, one of our elders, serves on the Board, and our church holds an annual Back to School drive every August, collecting school supplies for Manos to distribute to children who need them.

Manos de Cristo assists the Austin community with food and clothing services and ESL classes. The ministry also operates a dental clinic, assisting clients who cannot afford the expenses of dental care.

Did you know. . . that you can contribute to the marathon?
