Halloween is coming, and that means it’s time to have some fun with the kids at Plantation Park Elementary! As part of Open Road Fellowship’s commitment to our community, we have adopted all of the Kindergarten classes at Plantation Park. Throughout the year, we get to spend time with these amazing kids—and if you’ve never joined us, you’re missing a real blessing! From now through October 26, we’re collecting individually wrapped candy to provide a special Halloween treat for every child. Bring your candy to church or drop it off at On The Road Coffee Co. (next to Pepe’s) and help us give the kids a serious “sugar overload!”
Join us Monday, October 26 at 6:00 PM as we bag the candy, sample a piece or two, and most importantly, pray over the children who will receive it.
Then come party with us as we head over to Plantation Park! If you ride, bring your motorcycle—the kids love seeing the bikes roll in! We will meet at the Walmart parking lot behind Sonic on Airline Drive. We'll pull out together at 10:20, so we can make an "entrance" on the motorcycles. Dress up if you'd like, but come prepared to be blessed.
Bring some candy. Lend a hand. Love on some kids. Let’s make a difference in our community together!
HERE'S THE PLAN
Spirit Night: A Little Fun. A Whole Lot of Love!
Church, let’s show up and help our ministry partners shower some love on the Cumberland community! Spirit Night is bringing the community together for a night of games, activities, candy, bounce houses, and more for kids in Kindergarten through 5th grade. It’s a chance for kids to have a blast, families to connect, and all of us to share the love of Jesus.
Our Living Water Ice team—formerly the Snow Cone team—is heading to Bossier Elementary to serve alongside Cumberland Ministries and help bring the gospel to the community. We’d love for you to join us! We’re not asking for money—just your time, a friendly smile, and a willingness to serve.
If you can help, come out after 4 PM and jump in! Whether you’re serving ice or welcoming families, you can help someone feel seen and loved. Let’s make it a night filled with fun, connection, and the hope of Jesus!
The Open Road Growth Track exists to help you discover and develop your redemptive purpose and live the full life God created for you. The Open Road Growth Track is made up of four steps to guide you through this journey:
Make sure and register here, because Lunch is provided.
Close your eyes for just a second (well, wait until I give you what to visualize). Ok, in just a moment, I want you to close your eyes and imagine it's Thanksgiving, and you have nothing on the table. Ok, close your eyes now and imagine.
How did you feel about that? I bet it made you feel sad, scared, unsure, and maybe even worthless. Believe it or not, many people in our local area of Haughton, Bossier City, Minden, Doyline, and Shreveport will not have anything on their table this Thanksgiving.
That's where you come in. I am asking the members and regular attendees of Open Road Fellowship Church to bring with them to church the list (click here) of food items on November 22, 2026 (Please bring only what is on list). Bring your food in a plastic or paper sack and deliver it to the designated area in the foyer.
Our Open Road Kids will decorate the boxes with colorful messages of hope and love. During services, the boxes will get packed, and after the services, those wanting to deliver a box to a family will grab a box and an address to head out. It is super simple, and it is a true blessing.
If you are a regular attender of Open Road Fellowship, sign up here to bring a box, deliver a box, or if you or someone you know needs one. If you do not attend Open Road Fellowship but you've come across this site and need a box, click here to fill out the form. We're not sure if we'll be able to get to you, but we will try our best.
Remember, you may be at that empty table one day. I hope somebody would have thought of you enough to bring a box in the name of Jesus.
It seems like the year has flown by... but, let's take a moment and slow down as we come together for a night of worship. We all know folks far from the Lord - what a great Christmas present it would be if they were to come to know Jesus this Christmas. Most people say they would come to know Jesus if invited by a friend or family member, so why don't your start asking them to join you for the Christmas Eve Night of Worship?
Let's gather and sing out our praise to the God of the universe who is the only One worthy of our praise! Let's take some time to pray together and take communion together. Come out and plan on having an amazing night in the presence of God. Come out on Thursday, December 24th as we lift our voices in praise for the blessings He has rained down on us!
