The run will take place on Thursday, August 20th – Saturday, August 22nd. You can follow along RIGHT HERE or on Instagram @hillsongnyc.
As a church we have faith that our country can truly embody freedom for every individual. And yet, faith without works accomplishes nothing. So, in order to be a part of the solution, we will be hosting a race from NYC to DC to raise $100,000 for criminal justice reform. We have an incredible team of runners that have volunteered to go the distance and as a church we will be supporting them by sponsoring each runner. You also have the opportunity to join our run team remotely where ever you occupy your street! All proceeds will go to our partners Prison Fellowship, who are doing the diligent work of changing legislation and equipping those reentering society from the prison system.
As the scripture says, our church is running to win, not an earthly prize, but one that establishes heaven on earth.
Together in one accord, we have Faith for Freedom.
We have an incredible team of runners that have volunteered to run a relay race from the heart of New York City to the Washington Monument in Washington D.C. to raise $100,000 for our partner, Prison Fellowship. In total the team will run 280 miles over the course of 3 days. Follow they’re stories @hillsongnyc and partner with them as they run for freedom.
Join the the run team, remotely. By pledging $10 per mile and running with us that weekend where ever you occupy your street!

We have a team of 11 incredible runners that attend our various campuses across Hillsong East Coast. They have been training, preparing and strengthening themselves to run for this incredible cause. You can sponsor them below.
As a church we are aiming to raise $100,000 for Prison Fellowship. That donation will support the launch of Prison Fellowship’s new Justice Ambassador digital volunteer platform and will provide resources to support their holistic federal-level campaign. Their federal policy priorities include police reform, sentencing reform, ensuring greater oversight of the Bureau of Prisons, providing Pell Grants to incarcerated students, and increasing second chance opportunities for returning citizens. Their holistic campaign strategies address not only engagement of our Justice Advocates and Ambassadors, but also Prison Fellowship’s work to elevate stories from directly impacted people on social media and other channels, build coalitions among unlikely allies, develop research products that demonstrate the evidence-based rationale for reforms, and leverage their professional policy team to influence Congress and the current Administration.
