Pagan holiday or Evangelistic Opportunity? The decision is yours….
Rather than debate the issue, I am going to provide some things that could be done as part of a Christian alternative either as a family or as a church or youth group. (For the rest of you, many of the ideas involving pumpkins and other things could also be used at Thanksgiving or any time during the year for that matter.) And many of them are VERY evangelistic in nature!
Most of the ideas can be found on the index I created in October 2007
Halloween Alternatives for Christians
Here are some other’s not in that list:
Pumpkin Picasso
Sleepy Hollow
Fall or Harvest Festival
A Halloween Message
Pumpkin Patch Relay
May your harvest Festival be a harvest of souls into the Kingdom of God!
