Our church, being Reformed Presbyterian always holds a reformation party on the night of the 31st. October 31st is not only Halloween, but it is also Reformation day (The day that Martin Luther posted the 95 theses)! <br /><br />This is a really neat way to still have fun for the Children (and adults) while at the same time, separating yourself from the pagan holiday. Our pastor always gives a talk about one of the reformers, we have quizes, a hymn sing, and lots of yummy snacks and candy!<br /><br />Just thought I would share what we do on Oct. 31!<br /><br />Mrs. LindsayMrs Lindsayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04077711266391129833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2707457763723910705.post-74401909669955716142009-10-29T20:05:46.994-05:002009-10-29T20:05:46.994-05:00Raye Ann, <br /><br />We are spending the evening at our churches Harvest festival and fellow shipping with members of our church family. We then will take our kids 10 and 16 around our neighborhood for a light trick or treat with our neighbors. However we don&#39;t decorate our home with anything scary as well believe we are that light in a dark world. Our kids can carve their pumpkins with something happy or church based.<br /><br />We don&#39;t participate in haunted houses or anything else we feel is based on scaring kids!<br /><br />Love and Hugs ~ KatHeart2Hearthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05240536955573366802noreply@blogger.com
