Halloween

Hope it's ok to post this... a friend of mine sent this my way and I thought it was hilerious. I was written the day after Halloween. I've changed the names to protect the innocent...er... guilty.

Dear Jill,

I hope you guys didn't actually celebrate Halloween (i.e. the DEVIL's holiday)! If you and Tom actually took your little one trick-or-treating... you know that you will have to go directly to hell for that. I know because a lady at my church told me so... along with other good Godly Christianly people. I want to invite you to turn from the dark side and embrace the celebration of reformation day. Last night, our kids dressed in Bible era clothing and reenacted the children of Israel leaving Egypt (a Red Sea crossing was included). Then we all ate 'testmints' to represent moving from the old covenant of the Old Testament to the new covenant of the New Testament.

Shaloam and bless you and your family... we pray the fires of hell won't overcome you today for you pagan activities last night...

Mitch

I gotta admit... Melissa and I took both of our kids out as well. It was a blast. Emily got lots of candy... and she still insists that Jesus lives in her heart. Hmmmm.
