A Rockford tradition hosted by First Free Rockford will not happen this year. In a note on their website, the church says it's members and the community to stay home and celebrate the spooktacular holiday with family.

In an effort to be an active and loving part of our community, we are encouraging our congregation to be home and engaged with the families of their neighborhoods this year rather than hosting Trunk or Treat. It’s our hope that the city of Rockford would experience God’s love in their own neighborhoods this year from the people of First Free Rockford.

First Free Rockford will announce a Christmas event soon.
