How Can I Celebrate Halloween?

Turn Halloween into something positive in your family and neighborhood. We live among so many people who don’t know Christ. There is a desperate need for light in our dark world, and the Bible says we are to “shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life” (Philippians 2:15b-16a) to those who are perishing.

What a great time to tell people they can have a hope and a future with God if they put their faith in Him. “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16).

A day of playing dress-up and getting free candy is every child's dream. But children need to know that while trick or treating on Halloween is fun, the best treat of all has been given to us by God through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.


This year, consider carving a Christian pumpkin that will spread God's Word to those who see it. (You may need to re-size them before print)

God picks you from the patch, brings you in, and washes all the dirt off you may have gotten from the other pumpkins. Then he cuts the top off and scoops out all the yucky stuff. He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc. Then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside of you to shine for the entire world to see.

Jack o’ Lantern Gospel
Our prayer is that Halloween will help you to remember the great thing that Christ did for us when he saved us from the terror of death and granted us “citizenship in heaven” (Philippians 3:20)!

And remember, we need to let our light shine for others to see:  “In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16).

Ephesians 5:15 "See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil."
