Why Location Has Changed:
A wetter than normal fall season has caused the grounds at Al Lopez Field to become overly saturated and park officials have informed us that our event plans would have to be greatly modified and limited if we remain at Al Lopez Park. For the safety, enjoyment and comfort of all, we have decided we must relocate the Family Faith Fest. ( https://familyfaithfest.org/new-location-announced/)
