We are walking to honor CHD Warrior Kinley Ray! Kinley is a 6 year old girl that was diagnosed after birth with multiple heart defects. Needing 2 open heart surgeries before the age of 1, Kinley has become a survivor. It has been no easy road for Kinley as she has faced many obstacles in such a short time, but she continues to prosper. She proves that the power of prayer is amazing, miracles do happen, and God is good.
