33rd Annual WALK 4 LIFE
September 8, 2023

Dear Walk for Life Supporter,

Our Annual Walk for Life is quickly approaching.  The big day is Friday, September 8th.  I am so excited about the possibilities of seeing what God is going to do through each of you.  We want you to be a part of this year’s historic 33rd Annual Walk for Life.  We are trusting in Him to pull this all together as only He can do.  It is totally in His hands!  Our foundational scripture this year is Jesus said, Matthew 19:14, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”

 We serve an unchanging GOD who is faithful in the middle of unique and trying times!

 The Walking Track will be available from 7 am – 8 pm.  We will not have any other activities this day.  We will have hotdogs, popcorn, snow cones during the 4-7.30 time period.  We will have bottled water stations throughout the day.  Everyone can come at their preferred time as we strive to offer a safe environment.

To aid in everyone’s safety, we will be billing sponsors this year.  You may turn in your sponsor sheet on the day of the walk.  We will not have pre-registration this year.

Our goal this year will be $54,000.  Yes, that’s a BIG number but we serve an even BIGGER GOD! 

Another idea is for you to ask your sponsors if they would like to make a pledge either in Honor or in Memory of a Loved One who has or is serving in the Military.

We will have free t-shirts available for anyone who raises at least $100.00. We encourage you to wear your Walk 4 Life shirt and walk in your neighborhood or greenway to promote the Walk 4 Life

Strive to get your entire family and friends involved this year as we work together in spreading God’s love throughout Gaston County while saving the lives of our precious children!

Come be a part of the largest outdoor pro-life gathering in Gaston County.

  • In seeking the Lord several years ago about the rationale for the WALK, I received an answer to: “ Why do we do it?” Here’s what I heard.
  • The primary time in Gaston County when the body of Christ stops to acknowledge, across racial, denominational, ethnic and gender lines that we are all called by ONE to Choose Life and become “doers and not hearers only” of this calling.
  • The gathering of believers from all denominations will point to a future reality that says “we are many members, but one body” and somehow reminds us of what we have in common with our brothers and sisters and helps us forget, for a few hours, our differences.
  • The spirit of God present in the time of music and praise provides a worship atmosphere that will allow families to walk, the post abortive to be healed, our spirit to rejoice that something is being done to save life and by our examples to express to our little ones that this is a priority for us.
  • The luminaries along the track will slap you with the reality that abortion is happening to those you love, right here in Gaston County. The sobering fact of MORE THAN 478 abortions in Gaston County in 2020 (the latest stats available) means that more than one life per day was lost to this holocaust.WALK flags
  • The crosses on the side of the hill will sober you as you remember that in North Carolina, many children die each day before seeing the light of day.
  • The money that is raised enables the Crisis Pregnancy Center to continue the front line task of answering the call from so many hopeless, being there with free services, and sharing the compassion of Jesus Christ.
