On April 21, Lay Centre residents joined in the 2024 Via Appia Run, starting and finishing at the Baths of Caracalla Stadium. What began as a casual idea turned into a memorable team-building experience, as they prepared together for the 13-km run for weeks.
Reflecting on their journey, one resident remarked, “It was a powerful experience. These events are so joyful and I think one can make a connection: Christian life resembles a longer run rather than a sprint. There are many difficult stages. But it’s easier when you walk together and people cheer you on. The goal is that we all reach the finish line: heaven.”
Congratulations to Carlo, Francisco and Francis for their successful race.
