Welcome to the 2024, 12th Annual Kidist Selassie 5/10k Walk/Run event.
Tserha Aryam Kidist Selassie Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church is pleased to announce its annual 5/10k Walk/Run that will be held on Saturday, July 20, 2024. We are excited to announce that we have added 10K to the Kidist Selassie Walk/Run race. The invitation goes out to all community members in the Twin Cities. Please run/walk and send pictures to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
This race has two goals: to promote exercise in the greater Twin Cities community and to specifically support the effort of Kidist Selassie to expand its services and strengthen the Ethiopian-American community. We Walk/Run for Health in Faith “ለጤናችን በእምነት እንጓዝ፣ እንሩጥ”. The literal meaning of our catch phrase “5k walk / run for health in faith” is to attain physical health through the physical exercise of walking and running. The above figurative speech can have a double interpretation of message, which transcends to the biblical verse according to St. Paul in 2nd Cor 5: 7 “ For we walk by faith” to imply the deeper meaning of walking in faith will not only give us physical health but also the unseen mental and spiritual growth. Through faith we can accomplish the substance of things we hoped for. “ Faith is the substance of things hoped for , the evidence of things not seen” Hebrew 11:1.
Please invite your friends and family members.
We look forward to receiving your pictures.
