I was wondering what anyones thoughts are on the subject of Christians celebrating Halloween?

For the last 15-20 years now our church has sponsored a "Reformation Celebration" on October 31st at our local Christian School Gym. You can look at it as a Christ-centered alternative to Halloween's "trick or treat." The Reformation Party includes: make your own taffy apples, cake back-off contest, pizza, pop, dessert, coffee, singing, games for all ages, crafts and treat bags for all the children. This is always a great time for everyone and we invite families and friends to join with us.

Ofcourse this takes a lot of volunteers depending on how much you do but once you get this going in your area it becomes a tradition which people look forward to each year. The benefits are obvious: good fellowship and good fun instead of creapy creatures knocking on your door.
