Millersville Christian Academy is excited to host its first ever Heart of a Lion 5k race this fall. This race is designed to be a fundraiser to help MCA build their school building and 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the building fund for this project. Our school has grown so much and for that we are so grateful, and we are so excited to see what the future holds for the MCA Lions. The race is being held in downtown Taylorsville, NC, with a start at Court House Park off of main street. Participants are invited to both run or walk the race. We look forward to seeing you there!
