1000 Conversations — A House Meeting Training with Our Neighbors (7 October 2025)

Please join us for 1000 Conversations – a House Meeting Training with our neighbors at Grace Community United Methodist Church (9400 Ellerbe Road, Shreveport LA  71106)

Please note the re-scheduled date — Tuesday, 7 October 2025.  The time is still 6:00 PM.

On Tuesday (7 October 2025) at 6:00 PM, members and friends of All Souls will join our neighbors at Grace Community UMC for a House Meeting Training aimed at creating a more vibrant, healthy, and equitable community.

Because 10 voices are louder than 1 and 100 are louder than 10, we will learn how to facilitate small group listening sessions where neighbors can listen and share with each other — and together can not only build lasting relationships, but also work together to meet the needs and create change in our congregations — our neighborhoods, and the wider community.

Chili Cook-Off and Trunk or Treat (26 October 2025)

On Sunday (26 October 2025) after our 11:00 AM worship service, we will have a combined celebration of two All Souls Fall Classic events:

Chili Cook-Off and Trunk-or-Treat

The Chili Cook-Off grants the winner with a year’s worth of bragging rights and possession of the coveted Chili Chalice.

Do YOU have the Chili Chops to beat the reigning Chili Champion, Bennett Upton?  Because this is a chili cookoff in Louisiana, we of course shamelessly buy votes.  Bring cash — small or large bills — to put in the collection basket by your favorite chili.  Don’t worry — we will figure out a way to vote online as well.

Trunk-or-Treat is our annual Halloween celebration for which we invite our members and friends to decorate their cars in the parking lot and pass out candy to the kids who go trick-or-treating from car to car.

We encourage you to bring a game for the kids at your car to play or an easy craft for them to make as well.

Festivus Market (15 November 2025)

On Saturday (15 November 2025), All Souls is hosting a Festivus Market in the parking lot of All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church (9449 Ellerbe Road, Shreveport LA  71106) from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

Painters, sculptors, jewelry makers, soap and candle makers, fabric artists, authors, bakers, artists and artisans of all kinds are all welcome.

A $25 booth fee gets you a space in our parking lot to set up.  You may buy two adjacent spaces if you think you need extra space.

Register here or (if you prefer) scan the QR code with a second device.

If you prefer a paper flyer and registration form, download them here.

The parking lot will open that morning at 9:30 AM.  We ask that vendors arrive early enough to be set up completely by 10:45 AM.
