Fall Fun on the Block

Fall Block Party held across the street from The Garden Mission.

This October, neighbors from Southwest Baltimore came together for a day full of laughter, good food, and connection as The Garden Mission hosted its third annual Fall Block Party

Families enjoyed trunk-or-treat fun, pumpkin decorating, and games, while 50 families received grocery bags filled with care. Friends from Helping Up Mission joined in, making the day a true celebration of community and the friendships that continue to grow here in Hollins Market.

Traditions like these help us live out our calling to be good neighbors—creating spaces where people feel dignity, belonging, and purpose. These are the seeds that grow into deeper ministry: through Celebrate Recovery, people are finding healing and freedom, and through Alpha, others are exploring faith and discovering God’s love.

Every meal served at Soup at Six, every event like this one, opens another door for relationships to form and hope to rise in Baltimore.
