Welcome to 10th Annual Faith Fest


Faith Fest Owensboro 2020- (November 6 - 22)

An opportunity to meet and learn about the many Faith Communities of our area

FAITH FEST IN THE TIME OF COVID-19
As with everything, Faith Fest has had to adapt. This year's events are almost entirely virtual via Zoom ----  (Schedule & ZOOM links). ----

The only in-person event is the Sacred Text Exhibit, Saturday, 7 Nov. 12:30-2:30 pm, at the Daviess County Public Library. Just the same, it is still important to learn new things, meet new people, and see new places and we're going to meet virtually.

SCHEDULE OF VIRTUAL EVENTS & VIRTUAL TOURS:
Faith Fest 2020 has nine virtual events and 7 virtual tours, all via Zoom. The first event is Friday, 6 Nov. at 1:30 pm and the final event is 22 Nov. at 2:00 pm.

The Zoom Rooms will open 15 minutes before the event starts; ID & passcode is included. These events will only be available during the time indicated, so check the schedule carefully.   (Schedule & ZOOM links).
