Walking With a Purpose

Exercise is a good thing. The Bible says our bodies are a "temple of the Holy Spirit," (1 Corinthians 6:19), and when we take care of it, we honor and glorify the Creator.

But God wants us to exercise our faith, too. As 1 Timothy 4:8 says, "For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come."

In other words, walking around your local park is great for your earthly body, but walking in step with the Holy Spirit and God's commands has eternal value. 

His Little Feet invites you to do a little bit of both, as we present the fourth annual Step Up! 5K Walk/Run on Saturday, August 18th at Boardwalk Community Park in Windsor, Colorado. This event, hosted by Ellerslie, will benefit His Little Feet in preparation of the upcoming 2012-2013 international children’s choir tour. 

You can take part by running or walking the beautiful course, with spectacular views of Windsor Lake and the Front Range. And if you live out of state or can't make it to the event, you can sponsor a walker/runner instead. 

It’s easy to get involved! Follow this link to register to run/walk online. Or, if you'd like to sponsor a walker/runner and help us reach our fundraising goal, please contact us at info@hislittlefeet.org

During the 2011-2012 "Reaching For You" Tour, His Little Feet Children's Choir performed at over 75 churches nationwide. Through God's provisions, thousands of children around the world were impacted, and our goals are even higher for the coming year!

Beginning this fall, His Little Feet will again be touring nationally, serving as the voice for voiceless children around the world. Praise God for the work He is doing and continues to do. 

Now is your opportunity to partner with His Little Feet and Ellerslie in reaching out to some of the millions of orphaned and vulnerable children worldwide – and have fun while doing it! Go ahead, get a little heart and soul exercise this week along with His Little Feet!
