Events

Chili Cook-Off: Anyone is welcome to enter the chili cook-off. Participants can sign up in-person at the church, or by calling 618-841-3781. Entries are required to provide a general ingredient list in order to protect those with food allergies. All Chili entries must be present by 3:30 on Saturday, Oct. 21. 

Inflatables (Bounce Houses) will be available to all from 2-6 pm. 

Pumpkin painting & face painting will be available from 2-6 pm. 

The Punkin' Chunkin' contest is available for all ages. There will be classes designated by age, and prizes available for each age group. The contest is limited to either a shot-put or hammer-throw style. 

The car show provides an opportunity to show off classic, antique, sport cars and trucks. There will be prizes for fun categories such as "The Oldest Car" or "The Tallest Truck". This show is purely for fun, and is not an official event. All vehicles are encouraged to be at the church by 3 pm and will park in the designated parking area in the main parking lot. 

The Cornhole Tournament is much like the car show, purely for fun. While we will have brackets and teams, the tournament will not have a professional structure, nor is it sanctioned by any group or association. There will be prizes for the winners. The cornhole tournament will start at 4 PM sharp. 

Finally, the hayride will run from 5-6 pm. All are encouraged to bring a lawn chair and stay to roast s'mores around the fire following the hayride. 

There will plenty of Chili, Hot Dogs, Chips, Desserts, Caramel Apples and Popcorn (youth group is accepting donations), desserts, and drinks available for free to all.
