Trunk or Treat 2020

Trunk or Treat 2020

Weekly Update – October 9th, 2020

Every year in October we have our fall festival. Last year we had somewhere around 300-400 people who came through our church, ate chili, enjoyed a hayride and received candy. Due to Covid-19, this year may look a little different. This year, on October 31st from 6-8pm, the plan is to only have the trunk or treat portion outside in our front parking lot. We will release the health guidelines for this event in the next week or so, but for now, I want to encourage you to sign up to help. We need people who are willing to hand out candy from the back of their cars, others who can help with set up and/or break down, and some who can simply be present to help with anything else that might be needed for the night. I know that with the circumstances the way that they are that there many be some of you hesitant to jump into this opportunity. That is why we will take every measure possible to ensure that this is as safe as we can possibly make it. Even so, I want to encourage those of you who are comfortable to join with us in a few weeks as we seek to connect with our community through this event. There will be a sign up sheet in the hall.

This week we will be back in our series on the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 5-7. On Sunday we will take a look at “The Attitude Behind the Act” from Matthew 5:21-30. I hope that you will join us in person or by livestream.  

Serving Him with You,
Pastor Michael Nelson
