Swazi 5K

Event Overview The Swazi 5K is a popular event in its 18th year. People from all ages over central Oklahoma come to participate in a walk/run to raise funds for needed ministries in Eswatini, Africa (formally Swaziland) and in Bethany. Bethany First Church of the Nazarene is an active local church serving its community as well as the world in an effort to bring hope and healing to the nations through Christ. Eswatini Partnership The Eswatini Partnership is a collaborative initiative uniting the Eswatini Church of the Nazarene, Eswatini Nazarene Health Institutions, NCM Africa, Bethany First Church of the Nazarene, and Southern Nazarene University. Together, we work alongside local leaders and communities in Eswatini to address critical public health and social challenges, including HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, noncommunicable diseases, and the prevention of domestic abuse affecting women and children.
