Vision
To equip and encourage the church family to love our neighbors with Gospel hospitality which brings Christ's light to our community.
Gospel hospitality is welcoming, serving, and making room for others while building genuine relationships that reflect the love of Jesus.
Love Your Neighbors This Fall
Use the fall season as an opportunity to build relationships, show hospitality, and share the hope of Jesus. Choose an option that fits your family, Community Group, and comfort level.
Keep It Simple
Small ways to connect with the people around you.
-
Start a Conversation: Get to know your neighbors—learn their names, notice what is happening in their lives, and look for opportunities to build genuine friendships.
-
Share a Treat: Give a neighbor a fall treat along with a Gospel + Info Card.
-
Invite Someone Over: Share a meal, dessert, coffee, or another simple activity with a neighbor or coworker.
Host a Mini Fall Fest
Gather your Community Group, family, or a few friends and invite neighbors to join you.
Create a simple fall gathering with food, dessert, games, and conversation. No elaborate event is needed.
Fall activity ideas:
-
Fall-themed games
-
A fall photo booth where families can take pictures using their own phones
-
If the weather is cooler, a comfort station with hot cider, hot chocolate, soup, or other warm treats and a place to sit and talk
-
Share a Gospel + Info Card with guests
Make It a Community Group Effort
Work together to create a larger opportunity for connection.
Gather your Community Group at one home or spread out among several homes and invite neighbors, coworkers, or friends. Share a meal, play games, enjoy a fall activity, and intentionally make space for conversation and relationships.
How to invite
-
Make yard signs to let your neighbors know
-
Pass out invites you make in neighbors mailboxes.
-
Walk around the neighborhood and personally invite.

Why Neighborhood Fall Fest?
With the ongoing construction this year we decided to pivot the Community Fall Fest to a Neighborhood Fall Fest. Our hope is that you can share the love of Christ right where you are. We look forward to having our Community Fall Fest back in 2027.
You know your neighborhood the best! Be creative and come up with your own idea or a combo of ideas above. Be praying for the people you are inviting.
