For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline — 2 Timothy 1:7

Labor of Love Run
The 26th Annual Labor of Love Run is quickly approaching so mark your calendars for Monday, September 6 and start training. The race, which is one of Northeast Ohio’s premier running events, saw well over one thousand runners make their way over the five-mile and one-mile courses for the benefit of Akron Pregnancy Services last year. Now we have added another great beneficiary in the Pregnancy Support Center of Stark County for this year. Come to run the race, volunteer, or join the thousands of spectators who participate in this family-friendly event. Visit our Labor of Love page for more information or go ahead and register below.
