“Trunk or Treat” and Potluck Lunch — 28 October 2012

Please join us on Sunday (28 October 2012) after our 11:00 AM worship service for our annual “Trunk or Treat” potluck lunch.

Adults, children and youth are all invited to come in costume.  Grown-ups decorate their cars for Halloween and bring candy, small toys and possibly a game to play for the children, who will “Trunk or Treat” from car to car in the parking lot.

“But what about LUNCH?” asks the responsible parent-types and the generally lunch-minded.

So glad you asked.

There’s a Halloween Potluck in the Social Hall right after the service!  So bring your spookiest dish to share and join us for lunch before the parking lot festivities.
