Five Forks Methodist to Light Up the Night with Easter Glow Egg Hunt
March 21, 2026As the Easter season approaches, a unique twist on a classic tradition is coming to the Five Forks area. Five Forks Methodist Church has announced the return of its annual Easter Glow Egg Hunt, scheduled for Saturday, March 28th.
The event, which has become a favorite for families in the Simpsonville and Five Forks communities, offers a high-energy alternative to traditional daytime hunts. By using glow-in-the-dark eggs and neon decorations, the church creates an immersive, festive atmosphere that appeals to children of all ages.
A Morning of Radiant Fun
While many “glow” events take place at night, Five Forks Methodist has structured this as a mid-morning celebration, utilizing indoor spaces to ensure the glow-in-the-dark elements shine bright regardless of the South Carolina spring weather.
-
The Main Event: The egg hunt serves as the centerpiece of the morning, with thousands of glowing eggs hidden for children to discover.
-
Beyond the Hunt: In addition to the search for eggs, the event typically includes a variety of family-friendly activities, including themed crafts, games, and light refreshments.
-
Community Connection: The church emphasizes that this is a community-wide event, welcoming neighbors from across the Golden Strip to join the FFMC family for the celebration.
How to Participate
The Easter Glow Egg Hunt is designed to be a convenient and accessible outing for local families during the busy spring season.

When: Saturday, March 28, 2026

Admission: The event is free to the public, though the church often encourages families to arrive early to ensure they don’t miss the start of the timed hunts.
Part of a Larger Season of Celebration
The Glow Egg Hunt is just one component of the church’s broader Lent and Easter calendar. Following the Saturday event, the church will move into its Holy Week observations, leading up to Easter Sunday on April 5th.
By hosting the Glow Egg Hunt, Five Forks Methodist aims to provide a joyful, low-pressure environment where families can celebrate the season and connect with others in the Five Forks community. Whether you are a regular attendee or a first-time visitor, the “radiant” morning promises a memorable experience for the youngest residents of the Golden Strip.
