Trunk or Treat

The end of October brings around Trunk or Treat at the church building. For those of you not familiar with Trunk or Treat it is a great outreach to the neighborhoods by the church building. It is a positive alternative to Halloween. Trunk or Treat offers family games, hot cider, hay rides and candy without any dark element.

Trunk or Treat signals yet another year that we have been in Texas, this year marks 9 years. Our first visit to McDermott Road was on a Wednesday night on Halloween. Instead of finding a typical Wednesday night service, everyone was trunk or treating in the parking lot. At that time the congregation was in it's infancy and still in a modular building. I remember jokingly leaning over to Ms. Pam and saying, 'Let me get this straight, you don't have any elders, no baptistry, and you're trick or treating instead of having Wednesday night service?' She laughed and said they had gone 'liberal' since they left Oklahoma!
