:rofl: :yoiks: I found it extremely annoying when the trend toward "Hallelujah Houses" started some years ago at fundie churches. Now they're being billed as "Halloween Alternative" events on fundie marquees around here. :shrug: Sheesh...

I'm just waiting for "Mardi Gras Alternative" events in February. x(

1. The megachurch nearest me is having a "Family Fun Night"

No scary costumes, please. Kids are encouraged to dress as their favorite Bible characters instead... like Kung Fu Jesus. Hoo! Ha!



:silly:

4. Churches here are having
'trunk or treat'

Where apparently everyone comes to the church and hands candy out of the trunk of their car.

5. At least that's reasonable.
