Missions Triathlon

Join us for a fun and challenging event for children and youth to raise funds for World Missions! Lomax Assembly will be hosting a special Triathlon for those between the ages of 6-17. This will take place at the Clanton City Pool and Park. Participates will be involved in three separate activities such as swim, bike, and run which combined make up the triathlon race! Cost for registration is $30, but we're encouraging all who participate to help us raise funds for missions by asking people to help sponsor them! 

The proceeds that are raised from this event will go to missions projects represented through BGMC and Speed The Light. Organizations that focus on reaching people with the gospel message through providing essential equipment to missionaries and critical needs areas.  

• The registration cost is $30 per participant.

  BGMC is the Assembly of God missions program for kids that instills a heart of compassion to reach the lost through praying, giving, and going. All funds raised through BGMC go to meet critical needs around the world such as feeding programs, water wells, Bible schools, curriculum, and whatever else a missionary needs in their part of the world. 

  STL provides "essential transportation and creative communication" equipment for missionary evangelism. Through modern transportation, radio, television, print, audio, and digital equipment, our missionaries can help make Jesus known.
