Since 1999, a group of priests, seminarians, and lay people from the Archdiocese of Washington ran the Marine Corps 10K as a way to pray and sacrifice in support of our future priests and the Church. Runners and walkers of all experience levels are welcome to join us! In addition, by joining your prayers with theirs, and by making a donation in the name of the team, you can make a difference.
The Run for Vocations began in 1999 as a program to pray and sacrifice for future priests and the Church. Priests, seminarians, and lay people of all levels of experience were encouraged to join the Marathon and the 10K as runners or walkers and to enlist donations from supporters. In addition to individual participants, in 2009, parishes with the support of their pastors, began to form Run for Vocations teams.
If you wish to make a donation to the Run for Vocations Fund, which promotes vocations to the priesthood in the Archdiocese of Washington, supports the formation of seminarians, and assists seminarians with extraordinary expenses, please use the form below.
