GOK’s Runners have successfully completed the 10K!

A huge thank you to everyone who supported and donated towards the Colchester Temple fundraising campaign. Every step was for a greater purpose — building a Place for All for our community.

This is just the beginning of our journey.

“One vision, one community, one temple.”

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported GOK’s Runners so far. Because of your generosity, we have already raised £713 for the Colchester Temple campaign.

“One vision, one community, one temple.”

This is an amazing start, but it is only the beginning. Together, we are building more than just a temple — we are creating a place for faith, unity, and future generations.

Every donation, no matter how small, takes us one step closer to making this vision a reality. Let’s keep the momentum going and show what our community can achieve when we come together with purpose.

If you haven’t donated yet, this is your chance to be part of something truly meaningful.

Support the cause and help us go even further:

A group of friends, called GOK’s Runners, are running a 10K to raise funds for the Colchester Temple - a “Place for All” envisioned by CIA.

“One vision, one community, one temple.”

This is more than just a run - it’s the start of a journey to build something lasting for generations to come. And we’re only just getting started. Many more campaigns and fundraising events are on the way, but we need your support to make this vision a reality.

Every step we run is powered by purpose. Every donation, big or small, brings us closer to building a space where everyone belongs.

Join us in making this happen. Please support the cause by donating here:
