I have some wifi and am now desperately posting and scheduling all the things I’ve been thinking about whilst our lines have been down this last week. First off some links to some of the Halloween ideas I’ve blogged previously:
- Some stuff on how we do Halloween in the Vicarage
- A few pumpkin carving ideas
- And even a pumpkin meditation
- Glen Scrivener’s wonderful video
I noticed this weekend that CLC in Birmingham had a whole heap of Halloween tracts – and a pumpkin prayer, in a display this weekend. So if you’ve not had time to grab any resources, a quick trip to a local Christian bookshop should sort you out in time for any trick or treaters likely to descend. Our church are holding a light party for the first time this year – we’ve just rescheduled our October Messy Church to coincide. My kids are looking forward to it, and I’ve promised the Joker he can do some ‘guising’ at the party by encouraging everyone to tell cheesy Halloween jokes.
Ryan Cartwright aka Crimperman has published a great new cartoon for Halloween this year. I can’t seem to find a seraphim costume anywhere, though…

Aha! Very helpful to see how you do Halloween in the vicarage. We have purchased our first ever pumpkin and looking forward to engaging with the many little trick or treaters around here this week.
