Trunk or Treat Hits the Street

,

Trunk or Treat is back, but it looks a little different this year. Our Children’s ministry team has put some serious thought and heart into the events we offer. We want to glorify God and provide a way for our families to be involved in outreach as a family.

This year we are taking Trunk or Treat on the road to the parking lot of ADAMS SCHOOL.  Please sign up to park/decorate your car on Sunday evening, October 30.

We set-up at 4 pm and open our trunks from 5-7pm. Your kids can trunk or treat, bring friends or hand out fun treats, quotes, erasers, play-dough, stickers, or any creative thing you can dream up.  We need at least 15 cars to make this event possible. What a great opportunity to be the light in a neighborhood nearby.

Grace was honored to host the market for many years, and now we love supporting it in different ways. Members of our church will staff a project, “Teach for Life,” that trains teachers in global classrooms.

You may help by going to the market and shopping or by volunteering. There is a place to sign up at Grace, or you may call the church office, 684-5215 to do so.  Last year the Wichita Market raised over $30,000. Ten percent of that stayed in Wichita, and the rest was distributed to organizations around the world.
