Harvest 5K

Join us on Saturday, October 3, 2026 as we host our sixth annual Harvest 5K at The Way International Headquarters in New Knoxville, Ohio.

Move your body and breathe the fresh, crisp, fall air as you walk or run the 5K. In the evening, enjoy a Harvest Concert that is sure to uplift and encourage you with family-friendly entertainment in celebration of God’s abundance.

Guests are welcome to participate in both the 5K and concert or just one of the events. To run or walk the 5K requires registration; however, the concert is open and free for everyone. Bring your family and friends along too! Then on Sunday morning, join us for our Sunday Teaching Service at The Word Over the World Auditorium.
