Why We’re Hosting a Fitness Day for a Cause: The Heart Behind Kingdom FIT Community Day

At Kingdom FIT, we believe that fitness is more than physical. It’s emotional, mental, and deeply spiritual. It’s about showing up, pushing through, building confidence, and becoming stronger not just in your body, but in every aspect of your life. And while we push weights, run laps, and break a sweat together, we also believe in lifting each other up in more meaningful ways. That’s why we’re proud to host Kingdom FIT Community Day – Stronger Together on Saturday, August 16, 2025.

This event is more than just a jam-packed day of workouts. It’s a reflection of who we are and what we believe: that fitness is a force for good. That we’re stronger together. And that the local gym can be a place where transformation happens both inside and out—and for the benefit of others.

The Cause: United Cerebral Palsy of Central PA

This year, all proceeds from our Community Day will benefit United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) of Central Pennsylvania, an organization dedicated to helping individuals with disabilities live a life without limits. Their work supports families, empowers independence, and provides resources that make a tangible difference every day.

We chose UCP of Central PA because their mission aligns with ours: creating stronger individuals and more inclusive communities. Many of our Kingdom FIT families are personally impacted by disability—including our own. So, this cause is not distant or abstract. It’s personal, it’s real, and it matters.

Fitness with Purpose

We believe that fitness can be a vehicle for purpose. That sweat can have significance. That when we move together, we can move mountains.

On August 16, from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM, we’ll be offering six back-to-back, instructor-led fitness classes:

• 7:00 AM – Boxing

• 8:00 AM – Power Yoga

• 9:00 AM – FORGED Strength Training

• 10:00 AM – Butts & Gutz

• 11:00 AM – Cardio XP

• 12:00 PM – Zumba

Each class is donation-based, with a suggested minimum of $10 per class. Whether you come to one session or stay all day, your sweat will serve a cause greater than yourself.

Building Community, One Rep at a Time

Community Day is more than a workout schedule. It’s a celebration of connection.

We’ll also be hosting:

• A vendor marketplace featuring local small businesses

• Food trucks with healthy and indulgent options

• A Kingdom FIT Gear Pop-Up Booth

• A Silent Raffle with incredible prizes

• A Kids’ Corner (pending volunteers)

• Music, energy, and encouragement that only Kingdom FIT can deliver

We’re calling it Stronger Together because it’s a day to unite for something bigger. Every class, every dollar, every cheer from the crowd makes an impact.

The Heart Behind the Event

This isn’t a corporate campaign or a marketing gimmick. This is Kingdom FIT living out our core values.

We believe that faith and fitness go hand in hand. That the gym is a sanctuary. That when we honor God with our health, our bodies become vessels for service. And we know that the strongest people aren’t just those with the biggest deadlift—they’re the ones who show up for others, give generously, and live with purpose.

Throughout Scripture, we see calls to serve, to love, to give:

This Community Day is one small act of obedience to that call. We want to steward the space, energy, and talents we’ve been given for the good of others.

Why Your Participation Matters

Maybe you’ve never done a fitness class before. Maybe you haven’t worked out in months. Or maybe you’re a regular Kingdom FIT member who never misses a FORGED session. Whoever you are, there’s a place for you on August 16.

When you show up, you:

• Support UCP of Central PA

• Encourage individuals and families impacted by disability

• Stand in solidarity with your community

• Grow stronger in your own wellness journey

• Inspire others to give and serve

It’s not about how many reps you do or how fast you move. It’s about showing up and doing what you can. With heart. With purpose. With community.

Looking Ahead

Our hope is that this day sparks something bigger. That it ignites a passion for service, inspires new friendships, and reminds people of the power of unity. We want Kingdom FIT to be a beacon—not just of physical strength, but of compassion, generosity, and hope.

So mark your calendars. Bring a friend. Show up with an open heart. And let’s use fitness as a force for good.

Together, we are Stronger Together.

Join us Saturday, August 16 from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM at Kingdom FIT. Let’s move, give, and grow—as one.
