Join the Ozarks Festival of Faiths digitally! We will be livestreaming the Music and Dance Presentation portion of the event Saturday, March 2, from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
The second annual Ozarks Festival of Faiths is a celebration bringing people of all faith groups in our community to gather together around our Common Virtues.
The Ozarks Festival of Faith 2024 is inviting faith groups to have a table display at the festival on March 2, 2024. There is no charge for a table, but we ask everyone to follow some simple guidelines. (If you are a non-profit, we have table space for you, please reach out to request one.) To request a faith table, fill out this form and enter the answers to the display questions. Please complete this by January 26th. These answers will also be used to help plan some of the other activities at the festival. This is why we are gathering information early for planning purposes. If you are a non-profit organization (NPO), we invite you to have a FREE display table at The Ozarks Festival of Faiths. To request a table, please fill out this form. |
Kevin Howard and Chris Louzader from The Dove 98.7 will emcee the Ozarks Festival of Faiths.

Help us Fill a School Bus!
Doing Good Together is more than a slogan. During the Ozarks Festival of Faiths we are going to fill a school bus with supplies, clothing, backpacks, and many other items to help Springfield Public Schools continue to serve and support the children in our community. As you plan to attend the Ozarks Festival of Faiths, please consider making a donation to this cause. We can change the world as we keep doing good together.
