Light the Night
We mentioned the idea of doing a Trunk or Treat here on our parking lot — but instead, we want to fan the flames of outreach in an even bigger way… right where you live!
We know people have different convictions about October 31, but if your family typically hands out candy, we’d like to challenge you to LIGHT THE NIGHT!
💡 Turn on your porch light.
🍬 Hand out candy with gospel tracts or invite cards.
💬 Engage with your neighbors and share Christ’s love!
We’ll have tracts and invite cards available. Donations are welcome but not required to help with costs.
Let’s let Jesus light up a dark night—by being His ambassadors right where we live!
