FREE Fall Festival - Everyone Welcome!

Join us for the FREE 2nd Annual Fall Festival with fun, food, and games for all ages! Living Hope Community Church, located at 8135 Mount Vernon Road in Saint Louisville, is inviting families from across Licking County and beyond to enjoy an afternoon of free food, fellowship, and fall fun during its Second Annual Community Fall Festival on Sunday, October 11, from 4 to 7 p.m. Hosted by Living Hope Community Church and co-sponsored this year by the Mental Health & Recovery for Licking and Knox Counties, the festival is completely free to attend. Admission, activities, and food are all provided at no cost as a way of giving back to the community and creating a place where neighbors can gather, connect, and make lasting memories. The Mental Health & Recovery for Licking and Knox Counties works to improve the quality of life for individuals and families by using recovery and resiliency-based approaches while helping reduce the impact of mental illness, substance use, and addiction throughout Licking and Knox counties. The partnership reflects a shared commitment to strengthening families, supporting mental wellness, and building a healthier community. The church is located in the heart of Licking County, just five minutes from Utica, ten minutes from Newark, and about twenty minutes from Granville, making it an easy destination for families throughout the region. This year’s festival will feature something for every age, including games, live music, hayrides, barrel rides, a cake walk, a pie-eating contest, a giant inflatable slide, an obstacle course, and many other family-friendly activities throughout the evening. Guests can also enjoy a wide variety of free food, including hot dogs, a nacho bar, chili, caramel apples, cotton candy, desserts, and other fall favorites. “This festival is one of our favorite opportunities to serve our community,” Earls said. “Last year’s Fall Festival was such an encouragement to our church. It gave us the opportunity to meet many new families, build new friendships, and welcome several of those families into our church in the months that followed. That’s our heart behind this event. We want to bless our community, create a place where families can enjoy time together, and let every person who comes know that they are loved by God and always welcome at Living Hope.” We look forward to seeing you and your family!
