Halloween

Reflection

“I like Kit-Kat, unless I’m with four or more people.” –Mitch Hedberg

Prayer

Merciful God,

For multiple reasons, our culture has embraced Halloween as a frivolous excuse to eat candy and act silly. It can be fun and a way to build community, and yet, every year we also see the dangers and harms of unkindness. Today, then, we ask for safety and protection for all, especially children and their families, as we look forward to the day’s festivities. May the foolishness of some not spoil the harmless fun of others. Amen.

Call to Action

Have some light-hearted fun today! Share a confectionary token of friendship with colleagues and neighbors, while keeping my eyes open for the safety of others.
