Well, I am having technical difficulties showing all of you the pictures of the Halloween Party. I will get them up and going as soon as possible.

Until then, I will tell you about the festivities. We started early, one of our church folks came by and wanted help with his costume. I helped him create a shield and a sword for Link, and burned up some precious time getting decorations up. But That is the ministry. Plans change, things get changed, and we roll with it. So, when he had his armor made from duct tape and cardboard, with colorful duct tape from the summer camp we had left over, he left and got his clothing to match his plan. He left and came back three times, in the time I hung streamers, laid out the festive pumpkin vinil tablecloths, and set 6 pumpkins to start carving. then, I laid out 15 paper pumkins with numbers on them and taped them to the floor. This was our cake walk. Then, I mixed cool aid, and got halloween cups out, laid out the face paints, and as soon as that was set, church folks were showing up, with additional help from Jackuline McKinney and John Barrett and Les Quartier. They helped me staff the event, and there was a constant flow of people coming in, and some stayed a while and did cake walking, painted faces, and carved and painted pumpkins. One testimony I have was that the children, (Senior High and Jr High) saw the pumpkin I had carved that said "Jesus Loves You" and so they were inspired and started to work. However the hang up was they stared carving, and didn't clean out the inside, and when they cut it they cut at a degree angle that allowed the carving tied down with string to drop inside. I asked "how many of you have carved a jack-O-lantern before?" None of them had, and we had 30 pumkins to clean and when I cleaned one, then I put the tea light in it, and lit it up, and the kids were amazed, like they didn't know how it worked, they all said "OOOHHH AHHHH" and this testimony will be continued.
