Join us for Homecoming on October 2–3, 2026, as we gather with friends and family to celebrate all that God, in His grace, has done, is doing, and — Lord willing — will continue to do.
Homecoming is a highlight of the year and a cherished time for the Cedarville community to come together, reconnect, and reflect on meaningful memories and traditions. Homecoming 2026 will feature beloved favorites like the homecoming parade, worship finale, and the always-anticipated cardboard canoe race.

We can’t wait to welcome you back to campus as we celebrate the enduring legacy of Cedarville — together.
