Around this time of year families are getting ready to go door to door and get some candy with their kids. Kids that are dressed up as many different things. Churches host "Fall Fest" or "Trunk N Treats" on their property and usually have games, food, and candy to give away.
Some months ago I heard of the idea called "Light The Night", and I knew our church had to do it. Last year we did not do anything, no fall fest, nothing. This year I was going to make sure we did something.
Friday night we are sending 30 - 40 volunteers to 3 homes in Longview. We are going to be having small "Fall Fest" at each home. Bounce houses, games, food, candy. Each home will have bright lights so you can see the home from space. We are doing this for safety and for advertisement.
We will be giving away a XBOX 360 that each kid will have the chance to win. The catch is that they have to be present on Sunday, November 2 at LFA to win. Just another way to get the families into our church after the event. We are expecting salivations to happen on front yards right beside games and bounce houses.
Please pray for this event and the other 90 ish people that are going to pull this off. I will update you on the event this weekend.
What are you doing this time of year?
