Mosey all around the park. For Halloween today, there are pairs of cards at intervals, face down. On one card is a Treat (exercise). The other says “Trick!”

Pax stays together. When arriving at a pair of cards, one PAX turns over one of the cards. If it’s a Treat, do the exercise and continue. If a Trick, mosey back to the previous station, repeat that exercise, then return and do the exercise and continue.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Of all the holidays of the year, the most overcommercialized/ignored true meaning (by percentage anyway) has to be All Saints Day. Halloween (All Hallows Eve) has completely taken over to the point that many don’t even know about All Saints Day, which was created to celebrate and honor all those saints who didn’t have their own feast days. Take some time tomorrow personally or with your family to read up on a saint (not necessarily just those recognized by the Catholic Church), either ancient or modern-day, thank God for their example, and be inspired.
Hebrews 12:1-2
Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
MOLESKIN:
I was amazed by the luck of this group, only pulling three out of ten “Trick” cards…

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The struggle between light and darkness is real. But it’s not between two “sides” of the same coin. Light and darkness are opposites. And the light is not just one side of some impersonal “Force”. The Light is a person.

John 1:3-9
All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness, to bear witness about the light, that all might believe through him. He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light. The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.

MOLESKIN:
So I got this Chewbacca onesie about a month ago. Thought it would be great for a Halloween Q. Surely by October it’ll be cold enough to wear this thing. So I committed. And then it was 70 degrees. Hope the smell washes out…
