Nazareth is home to the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth. For many, it is sacred ground. The campus includes rolling hills, wooded areas and historic buildings. The spires of St. Vincent de Paul Church rise at the entrance and welcome all who arrive.
The 3.1-mile course guides participants across the Nazareth campus, along wooded trails and around the lakes. Runners and walkers will pass the Nazareth Motherhouse and see how the Sisters serve today. Each registration supports this work and helps respond to urgent needs around the world.
In 2026, the Nazareth 5K will benefit a ministry of the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth that offers a nature based summer day camp for children. Campers explore the outdoors, learn about the natural world, practice reflection and meditation, and take part in creative activities that support their growth.
Participants who register by April 20 are guaranteed a T-shirt.
