A Chili Cook-Off on FM 2978 Saturday, and a Two-Day Christmas Market at the Cowboy Church in December

By The Magnolia Standard · November 3, 2026

Two Magnolia congregations open their grounds to the whole town this season, one this Saturday and one the first weekend of December. This is the first Faith & Family, a regular column on what local churches are hosting, serving and giving.

Grace Chapel Assembly of God, at 31101 FM 2978 in Magnolia, holds its Autumn Market on Saturday, November 7, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The listing names three things: artisan vendors of all kinds, a free chili cook-off, and a family-friendly day. The church was still signing up artisans and crafters when the listing posted, so the number of booths was not set. Questions go to the church at 281-259-2500.

It is one of several things on the calendar that Saturday. Our Saturday guide has the rest, from the Veterans Day celebration in Conroe to the children's expo on FM 1488.

December 4 and 5: Cowgirl Christmas Market

Four weeks later, the women of Magnolia Cowboy Church host the Cowgirl Christmas Market, Friday, December 4 and Saturday, December 5, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days, at the church, 23245 Glenmont Estates in Magnolia 77355.

Admission is free. The chamber's listing describes boutique clothing, handmade goods, home decor, gifts and gourmet treats. The contact number on the listing is 281-259-5802.

Today the same church is one of the county's Election Day polling places, for Precinct 117, a new location this year.
