Neighborhood Egg Hunts


Reach out to your neighbors by hosting an Easter Egg Hunt at your home! Neighborhood Host Packets will be available at the Family Welcome Centers beginning Sunday, February 24. Packets contain a guide, invitations, storytelling resource and follow-up cards.

This is what a 2012 host said about the Egg Hunt she hosted:

"I was nervous about doing it because I really invited people who I didn't know well. The people all lived near me, but none of them knew each other either, so I was nervous that it might be awkward. It ended up being so great. Everyone talked and had a lot of fun together. I had prayed a lot about it,a nd feel like God really answered my prayers around the event - even down to the details of figuring out how and who to invite."

Check out these photos from a 2012 Neighborhood Egg Hunt hosted in Shoreview by two 
families from Calvary:
