To do halloween or not???
Just a reminder that this year our Corps will not be hosting a halloween alternative carnival. Although we have enjoyed the fun in past years and always gave some form of gospel presentation, we couldn't justify the cost and man-power for such little turn-out and no real corps growth.
SO NOW WHAT DO YOU DO???... Halloween options abound....
- This year several church have combined for a united outreach for a safe alternative if you want to join with them.
- You might want to go trick or treating and give out tracts, invites to church, or do one on one evangelism.
- You could open your home to give out treats and also give out gospel information, church invites, etc...
- You could go find a scary part of town and do street witnessing to those who are out and about.
Whatever you do, make sure you use this time of year to speak with people about what they believe about eternity, and then love them enough to share the truth about Jesus Christ. No one will join God Almighty in heaven for eternity without a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. No one will be a ghost and hang around, you won't come back for another try, there is only the fact of a place called hell that will be far worse than any haunted house turned reality you can imagine. Jesus Christ was crucified and rose from the dead to defeat sin and death for us. Why not take His offer of eternal life and forgiveness and pass it on to those around you.
Live holy, preach Jesus!
