It’s the beginning of another year and that means, it’s time too take out those running shoes you haven’t used for a while because the Diocesan 5k Annual Walkathon is just around the corner!
Yes, the Health Ministry of the Diocese of Chalan Kanoa is starting 2020 with the annual walkathon next Saturday, January 25, 2020 at Kristo Rai in Garapan. Free registration will begin at 5:30 AM and go-time will be at 7 AM.
Last year, over 800 participants joined this fun family event, which has now become a part of January events in Saipan. This year, the ministry is expecting more participation as they prepared more free shirts to be given away.
This year, the annual health fair will also be a part of the walkathon. Numerous health clinics such us CHCC, Kagman Cummunity Health Center, Hardt Eye, Marianas Eye and others will be setting up booth around Kristo Rai parking lot to provide different services to everyone for free.
Like last year, the Health Ministry will also continue to assist other parishes in their respective walkathons throughout the year. Last year, they assisted successful evenst in Rota and Tinian.
With this walkathon and health fair, the Diocese of Chalan Kanoa wants to renew its commitment to CNMI to minister not only spiritually but also physically.
We also want to thank our benefactors, sponsors and partners for making this year’s annual walkathon possible.
