The event featured not only an egg hunt but also face painting, a bouncy house, and opportunities for children to interact with live rabbits, creating memorable experiences for community members of all religious backgrounds.
 

The centerpiece of the event—a traditional egg hunt—drew 500 enthusiastic children who eagerly participated in the search, embodying the church’s commitment to L. Ron Hubbard’s precept “Love and help children” from his widely-distributed moral guide, The Way to Happiness.

“We wanted to open our doors to the families of our community,” explained April Wallace, Director of Community Affairs for the Cincinnati church. “Kids spend way too much time cooped up at home, playing on tablets, watching TV and movies. The more activity they have will improve their mood, their confidence and even their academic performance. We wanted to provide a fun, safe environment for families to come and celebrate this holiday.”

Beyond the egg hunt, attendees enjoyed a comprehensive array of family activities, including photos with the Easter bunny, interaction with live rabbits, face painting, a bouncy house, themed games, and holiday refreshments. The event was offered completely free of charge to all participants.

In keeping with the Church of Scientology’s inclusive approach to community service, the Kids Festival welcomed members of all religious backgrounds, reflecting the organization’s broader commitment to social betterment initiatives. These programs include distribution of The Way to Happiness, Truth About Drugs educational materials, United for Human Rights advocacy, and Narconon drug rehabilitation services.

The Cincinnati church’s community outreach represents a local expression of Scientology’s global humanitarian efforts, which include the Scientology Volunteer Ministers—an international corps that assists at disaster sites worldwide, helping over 2 million people annually.
