TRUNK or TREAT

...A family friendly Halloween alternative.

Held Annually on October 31st 

The Trunk or Treat event is from 6-8 p.m.  The Veggie Tales movie “Where Is God When I’m Scared” will follow the event from 8:15 – 9 PM in the sanctuary.  Only persons with tickets will be admitted for the movie.  Tickets will be available at each “trunk” from 6-8 p.m.  All children attending the movie must be accompanied by at least one parent/adult. 

Where's God When I'm Scared - Two Great Stories:
"Tales From the Crisper"-
After watching a scary Frankencelery movie, Junior Asparagus is reminded that there's no need to be scared of monsters because God is bigger than the boogie man!

"Daniel and the Lion's Den"-
We head to ancient Babylon for a musical adaptation of this classic Bible story. When Daniel finds himself in deeeep trouble, he learns that he's still in God's hands!

Adults, teens, families, Bible Fellowship groups, etc. are invited to decorate a trunk. Some Trunk Decorating Ideas...

REMINDER:  Keep it Friendly & NON-Scary

We don't charge admission for the Trunk or Treat,

but we ask that everyone bring food items to stock the shelves

of our Food Pantry.  See the list of needed items.

  • Family-Friendly Costumes Welcome - The children are encouraged to wear non-scary costumes that should reflect fun, happiness and God's goodness, i.e.- Bible characters, clowns,  animals, action heroes, princess, cartoon characters, etc.
  • Preschool thru 6th Grade -- Great fun for the family!
  • We are collecting individually wrapped candies to be passed out.  Place bags of candy in one of our collection bins located in each of our buildings.
