I wanted to share with you a post from my dear friends at the SALT Project. They, like me, have high regard for Halloween. Maybe it’s my Irish and Scandinavian pagan ancestry, not sure.
You can read it here. It’s short. Here’s a quote I pulled to give you a gist…
"At its best, then, Halloween amounts to a vivid portrait of what 'neighborhood' actually looks like. That alone is worth celebrating. And after all, what better way to honor the dead, prepare to celebrate the saints, and enter together the darkest time of the year than to embody — with equal parts creativity and joy — the 'loving our neighbors as ourselves' to which Jesus calls us every day?"
Enjoy:)
Happy Halloween,
Jonas
