The leaves are changing and falling, which can only mean one thing. It's time to begin searching for the perfect pumpkin and then making the all-important carving decision. This year we've got a couple faithful twists to add to your pumpkin carving options. Our first option is a Shine for Jesus template, which you can see a small glimpse of to the left.
Another option is one that we carved during Chapel Time a few years ago. Here are the shapes of the face (see a picture, here):
Following is The Pumpkin Prayer to go along with this particular template: Dear God, As I carve my pumpkin help me say this prayer: Open my mind so I can learn about You; (Cut the top of the pumpkin) Take away all my sin and forgive me for the wrong things I do. (Clean out the inside) Open my eyes so Your love I will see; (Cut the eyes out in heart shapes) I’m so sorry for turning up my nose to all you’ve given me. (Cut a nose in the shape of a cross) Open my ears so your word I will hear. (Cut the ears shaped like the Bible)-we did rectangles Open my mouth so I can tell others You’re near (cut the mouth in the shape of a fish) Let Your light shine in all I say and do! Amen. (Place a candle inside and light it) Don't forget to save those pumpkin seeds to bake for a yummy snack! Happy Halloween!
