An article on LinkedIn about our partnership with Cerris systems this year! ❤️❤️❤️

Remembering Zach. Giving Back. Making a Difference. This year, our Cerris Systems Kansas City team was honored to take part in the Zach Schrock Memorial, an event that hits especially close to home for our Cerris family. Zach’s brother, Braden, is part of our Cerris Systems Fab Shop Family, which ...

Today we went to Cerris Systems to present them with the plaque for being a title sponsor for the race and much more. We had also been keeping a secret! Our son Braden works for Cerris Systems and little did he know that his friends were working secretly to get some guys in the shops to buy race shirts to show their support. No one knew that everyone there would buy a shirt. Everyone!!!! Braden had no idea we had been conspiring to do this. His boss and friend, Shane Eddleman made it all happen.

We got to Cerris and took the plaque in to the CEO’s office and while we were in there, all the guys in the shop changed into the race shirts. When we went walking back into the shop, I wish you could have seen Braden’s face. I didn’t get a pic because I was living in the moment. He was shocked! What a family atmosphere he has at work. The other shop down the road took a pic as well. I believe his eyes got a little wet along with the rest of us.

Who knew back when Zach went to Heaven that the Lord would mend this story together the way He did? Only God. We are so thankful for Cerris systems for their support of the Zach Schrock Memorial race, and their support of our son, Braden. Our hearts are overflowing.

God keeps His promises.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

A God story from the race this weekend......

This is told 3rd hand, so some of the wording might have been different, but the story is true, but the quotes may not be perfect.

It's no secret that God raised enough money to sponsor 4 kids at LFCR, but what we didn't know was that He had already started a ball rolling. Ed and Bradley (LFCR guys) were on their way to the race and Bradley told Ed that he felt like they were suppose to double the amount of kids they host for hunts through Catch A Dream at the ranch. So they started tossing that around that morning in the car ride to the race. Then they show up at the race and we announce that God doubled our goal and gave us enough money for 4 not 2 kiddos. Ed looked at Bradley and said "I think you got your answer." God already had this all worked out and when you get confirmation like that it just boosts your spirit. How amazing. As I sit here listening to Pastor Joby Martin preach on the Impossible to Possible. I think, man if there is anyone reading this that knows the Lord has called them to something and if God doesn't show up, it will fail and you will look silly. Don't walk away from what God has called you to do. Win or fail. Obedience is important. Whether the Lord shows up the way you think or in a different way, take that step of obedience. Not in your flesh or in your will power, but only in obedience to God and by his power.

I know this movie is kind of cheesy, but this clip came to mind.

I uploaded pics from the race but Facebook made me do it in increments. So if you want to see all the pictures just go to the 2026 Zach Schrock Memorial 5k album and feel free to tag people.

Thank you again to everyone who came and donated and sponsored and registered and got the word out. We are still riding the high of this weekend.
