Why not make a different kind of pumpkin this year! Enjoy Halloween and stay safe in the dark.Pumpkin PrayerDear God,As I carve my Pumpkin, hear my prayer. Open my mind so I can learn about You (Cut the top of the Pumpkin)Take away all my sins and forgive me for the wrong things I do.( Clean out the inside of the Pumpkin)Open my eyes so Your love I will see.(Cut out the eyes shape of a heart if possible) I’m sorry for turning my nose up to all you have given me.(Cut out nose shape of a cross if possible) Open my ears so Your word I will hear. (Cut ears out shaped like a Bible)Open my mouth so I can tell others your are near.(Cut mouth in shape of a fish if possible) Let your light shine in all I say and do. (Place a candle inside and light it)AmenSt John’s church will be open 5pm-7pm on Friday 31st October (Halloween)There will be a ‘trick or treat’ treasure hunt (not all be treats!), craft activities and a music playlist all about light.
