The Faith Walk 2009 was a resounding success according to Rev. Larry Schmoekel, administrator of Faith Christian Academy. 
“We had a great time - and so many walkers,” Schmoekel said emphatically. “There were 46 walkers of all ages. Most walked the whole 100 minutes - some of the youngsters even ran 100 minutes.”
“If we take the size of the gym and do all sorts of mathematics to it, like average lap time, average number of laps completed and the like, we walked 460 miles,” Schmoekel added.
“Not only did we walk that far, but up to this point we have collected $1950 in pledges. When that is matched, we will have raised $ 3900,” he said.
If anyone still would like to pledge for the Faith Walk 2009, send a check to Faith Christian Academy, 1550 East State Road 205, Columbia City, IN 46725.
