What Is The Praise Run?
A community movement with eternal impact — and your brand at the center of it.
The Praise Run is more than a race. It’s a purpose-driven event that fuses faith, fitness, and philanthropy drawing hundreds of runners, families, churches, and community leaders together to worship through movement and support a life-changing cause.
Join us for a powerful morning of movement, worship, and gratitude at The Praise Run — a 5K, 10K, or Half Marathon run to celebrate the goodness of God and raise support for the Parkker Hope Program.
Whether you're walking, jogging, or running, every step is an act of praise. Write what you're praising God for on your race bib. It could be healing, breakthrough, salvation, restoration, or simply the breath in your lungs.
This isn't just a run.
It's a declaration.
🎶 Live worship music along the race route
🙏 Opening inspiration from Paul McClain: Leveling Up Your Life
🇺🇸 Prayer and national anthem by Pastor Branamier & God’s House Worship
📖 Stories of praise worn on bibs — turning the course into a testimony
💛 Support for the Parkker Hope Program, which offers spiritual, mental, and physical healing support for kids fighting cancer
Why We Run: The Parkker Hope Program
On May 30th, 2023, 11-year-old Parkker McClain was diagnosed with stage 4B Hodgkin's Lymphoma. She began a very intense chemo protocol that would have a massive impact on her little body. The McClain's began to use hyperbaric, red light, and molecular hydrogen treatment to give her body a significantly higher chance to win the war in her body. On August 9th, Parkker's PET Scan came back clear!
The war was won, and we are standing in faith that your child will win the war.
The Parkker Hope Program allows any child under the age of 18 diagnosed with cancer to receive the following services for FREE:
Use of the Leveled Up Health Center (Body)
Daily Disciplines Parkker completed (Mind)
Scriptures and Songs (Spirit)
