The Kentucky Race Track Chaplaincy has scheduled the 20th annual Race For Grace, traditionally held the Monday prior to the Kentucky Derby. This dinner event raising financial support for the Kentucky Race Track Chaplaincy will be held on Millionaires’ Row in the clubhouse at historic Churchill Downs on May 2, 2022. Hall of Fame Jockey and Kentucky Derby winner Pat Day, who has been the President of the Kentucky Race Track Chaplaincy the past six years, will be the Master of Ceremonies.
The keynote speaker will be nationally recognized Pastor Bob Russell. At just 22 years of age, Bob became the pastor of Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, Ky. That small congregation of 120 members became one of the largest churches in America, with 18,000 people attending the three worship services every weekend in 2006 when Bob retired. Now through Bob Russell Ministries, Bob continues to preach at churches and conferences throughout the United States, provide guidance for church leadership, mentor other ministers and produce video Bible studies. An accomplished author, Bob has written over a dozen books including the 2016 release, After 50 Years of Ministry: 7 Things I Would Do the Same and 7 Things I Would Do Differently.
There will be a live auction featuring a box for the 2023 Kentucky Derby and Oaks and a silent auction featuring leather halters from 2022 Kentucky Derby participants, horse racing art and memorabilia.
