On Sunday, Oct. 13, 2019, “Team AMS” will run in the Army Ten-Miler in support of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA (AMS). Team AMS comprises ~50 runners, including military members, civilians, chaplains, AMS seminarians, AMS employees, and non-AMS priests. Through gifts from sponsors, they hope to raise $60,000 in support of the AMS mission to provide pastoral care for Catholics in the U.S. armed forces and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers.
His Excellency, the Most Reverend Timothy P. Broglio, J.C.D., Archbishop for the Military Services, noted that “Each member runs for various reasons, all of which unite in one cause – sustaining the Archdiocese that supports members of the military and their families. Each runner wants to ensure that from all the sacrifices our service members and their families must make, their religion is not one!”
