Roger’s Run is more than an annual event for us—it is a living tribute to Roger Williams, a man whose heart for Teen Challenge shaped years of ministry, mentorship, and hope. Each Summer, when our community gathers on the ranch, we feel the impact of Roger’s legacy in every handshake, every cheer, and every step taken on the course. His passion for physical activity, his love for America, and his belief in second chances continue to inspire the heart of this event. Roger Williams believed deeply in the men of Teen Challenge. He saw their potential long before they could see it themselves. His commitment to prayer walks around the ranch, his willingness to serve in any capacity, and his desire to connect his love for movement with ministry laid the foundation for what would become Roger’s Run.
This year’s event brought together 188 participants, and even more families, and supporters, who showed up with joy and intention. The laughter, the patriotic outfits, the anticipation at the starting line, and the fellowship shared throughout the morning reminded us once again that Roger’s Run is a community effort rooted in love and hope.
There was a pancake breakfast with sausage, bacon, juices, coffee, and much more. Everything for the breakfast was provided by the Martin Brower company in Stockton. We are thankful for their support and generosity.
Thanks to the kindness and generosity of our community, Roger’s Run 2026 raised a total of $5,246.00 for Faith Home Adult & Teen Challenge. We especially want to thank Laura & Jerry Nance, LeAnn & Mike Mason and the Modesto Moves volunteers for organizing this event. We also thank Surgical Artistry for their sponsorship. Every dollar directly supports the men in our program—men who are working hard to overcome addiction, rebuild relationships, and discover the purpose God has for their lives. Your support fuels transformation, and we are deeply grateful.
To every runner, walker, volunteer, sponsor, donor, and friend: thank you for honoring Roger’s legacy with us. Thank you for believing in the men we serve. Thank you for making Roger’s Run 2026 a day filled with joy, connection, and purpose. We look forward to seeing you next summer.
