Pigtoberfest 2026 – Church Picnic

Where: Elyria Campus When: October 11 at 4pm Who: Everyone! Pigtoberfest is the Open Door version of the traditional church picnic where our entire church family intentionally gathers to eat and play together. Join us for good food, games, music, kids' activities, and more! How to bring food • We've got the main course covered, but we need you to bring a side. • So, pick up a tray at your campus. Fill it and bring it to share! • Each tray has been labeled with a dish, so pick one that works for you. • We'll have a food drop-off beforehand beginning at 3:30pm (Pigtoberfest starts at 4pm). Pie Baking Contest! Are you known for making the tastiest, most delicious pie for Thanksgiving and other times throughout the year?!?! Then register to join the pie baking contest and show off your skills in pie making! Make your pie at home and bring it for judging at Pigtoberfest! Register for Pie Baking Contest Chicago Style Softball Game We are forming a couple of teams to compete in a competitive yet fun game of softball—with a twist! No baseball mitt needed! No, seriously, our Chicago-style softball game uses a 16in. softball (traditional is 12in.) that you throw and catch without a mitt.
