Damascus Way was proud to volunteer at Run the Valley in Golden Valley this weekend!

Our team had the opportunity to support the event by handing out water to runners and cheering them on along the course. It was a great way to give back, stay connected, and be part of such a positive community event.

Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the day a success. We are grateful to be part of a community that values health, connection, and transformation.

Multigenerational Transformation,

03/04/2026

Through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus, God delivered the ultimate act of justice, breaking the chains of the past and taking away the pain to offer every soul a clean slate. At Damascus Way, we mirror this divine work by fostering multigenerational transformation, proving that Christ’s victory provides the power to rewrite our family legacies. By embracing His finished work, we move from the weight of systemic cycles into a future defined by restoration and hope for generations to come.

His death gave us life, in Him, we rise!
