Fall Festival October 31

Fall Festival is fast approaching and there is good news! We only need a few more volunteers to fully staff all of our booths! The big need is setting up the worship center and festival booths on Sunday the 31. We could also use a few more volunteers on the Décor team to decorate on Sunday afternoon and Monday morning. If you haven’t checked out our candy meter, check it out! We are steadily moving along and have hit 53% of our 35,000-candy goal!

Candy Donations for Fall Festival

We are accepting candy donations in the decorated bins at both the Main Entrance and Kids Entrance. Our goal is 35,000 pieces of candy. Make sure to check out the candy meter by the main stairwell each week to see how close we are to reaching our candy goal!
