On June 18, 2011, we held the Fourth Annual Exercise Your Spirit 5K Run. The event took place in Saddle River County Park in Saddle Brook, NJ. Due to your generosity and prayers, we raised $34,207.88! Over the last 4 years, the 5K Run has contributed over $122,000 to the New Building Fund. We are very humbled by the level of support shown to us every year during this event. It's worth noting that around $20,000 was contributed the day of. It is only through God\'s grace and your commitment that this event has succeeded the way it has. A few people deserve special mentions. This year's fastest female was Sarah Georgy from East Brunswick (completing the race in 30:13.0). Runner-ups were Andreia Nunes (32.31.1) and Nermin Soliman (35:33.2). The fastest male and race winner was Moheb Thomas also from East Brunswick, who completed in the astounding time of 20:43.4. Runner-ups were last year's champ, Peter Tadros (20:44.7), and Mike Soliman (21:54.1). Fun fact: Every year, our race winner has come from a different church (Bergen, Cedar Grove, Woodbury and East Brunswick)! A very special shout-out to David Bebawy, who was this year's highest fundraiser for the THIRD time! David raised $4,541.66. Sarah, Moheb, and David each received a B&N Nook for their outstanding accomplishments. The event was blessed with the attendance of our reverend fathers, Fr. David Bebawy, Fr. Makarius Sawirus, Fr. Anthony Basily and Fr. Thomas Nashed. We ask you continue to pray for our congregation and the construction of a new church. Thank you again and we look forward to seeing you next year! |
