Here are six ways to share the Gospel on Halloween and shine light into the darkest corners of your neighborhood.



Witnessing Stickers for Halloween Candy

On each bar of candy, you can put witnessing stickers. Grab your kids and dump all the candy on the floor and create fun messages that will provide uplifting ways to share the Gospel. You can engage your kids by having them help with Bible Verses. Or ask them what they would want a friend to know about Jesus then write it down on a label.



This is such a great way to get Jesus in all those sugar-filled pillowcases and buckets. You can put simple messages like “Yes, there is something better than candy. It is being God’s friend!” Or “Life is sweeter with Jesus.” Or simply “Jesus loves you!”



Share the Pumpkin Gospel

I had never heard of the Pumpkin Gospel until I became a parent and started looking into different ways Christians interact with Halloween. When I first heard of it, I discounted it as just another stretch of the gospel to meet a worldly idea. But after doing some research and dwelling on it, I think it actually teaches a valuable and memorable lesson.





Trunk or Treat

Utilize your church parking lot to host a trunk or treat. Have your church members invite their friends for a night of fun. In case you are wondering, a Trunk or Treat involves opening your trunk to display candy, games, and decoration. You can include Gospel tracts along with the candy.



This is a night to gather and is a safe and super fun alternative for families.



Reverse Trick or Treating

Instead of going up to the house expecting the biggest candy bar, have your kids offer the treat instead. You can make it a family fun activity by baking together. Then you can package them up with inspirational fall-themed scripture cards.



Send Halloween Care Packages

Similar to being “booed,” you can send care packages or drop them off on someone’s front lawn. This is a very nice tradition and involves secret gifting. If you are not familiar with being “booed,” this is when one neighbor secretly leaves a small basket on someone’s front lawn with instructions. In turn, that neighbor is asked to “BOO” someone else.



Who doesn’t love a fun surprise? Along with candy, you can add an invite to your church and/or witnessing stickers on the candy. This is a great way to share the Gospel and have fun on Halloween.



Have Fun as a Family

There are many ways to share the Gospel, but it has to begin at home. Spending quality time and having fun as a family is a great way to share the Gospel on Halloween.



Why not take time to nurture your child’s faith by fixing their eyes on Jesus this Halloween? Take time to pray together, cook a meal together, or carve pumpkins, and teach them the Pumpkin Gospel. Be an example of faith while having fun as a family at home.



Prayer for Sharing the Gospel on Halloween

Ask God for creative ways for you to share the Gospel this Halloween. With God’s wisdom, you will open your eyes to the multiple ways there are to share light and love on Halloween. The people who celebrate Halloween as a pagan holiday are probably the ones who need prayer and the Gospel the most.



“Dear Lord, I pray that you give me the opportunity to share the Gospel on Halloween. Show me how I can shine light into what is considered a dark night. Lord, use me as a vessel to show your goodness. Thank you for your faithfulness and love. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
