Fairmount Presbyterian Church has been selected as Ohio's host for the Interdependence Relay, a nationwide initiative connecting communities through 50 gatherings in 50 states. At the Ohio stop on the Relay, Fairmount will host a free Fall Harvest Block Party. Everyone is invited to enjoy hearty soups, bread donated by The Stone Oven, cider, donuts, live jazz, a bonfire with s'mores, a family-friendly movie, and games.
This gathering celebrates the everyday work of building a community where everyone belongs: welcoming immigrants, supporting neighbors in need, and fostering relationships across religious, racial, and cultural differences. Although hosted at a church, the block party is a community celebration, not a religious event. Everyone is welcome.
