Trunk Or Treat



We had Trunk or Treat at our house this year instead of at church. I was all ready with my tons of candy (I had the good stuff too- Snicker bars and Reeses cups). As my fellow South Floridians know, it was extremely windy because of Hurriane Noel. Alot of my decorations blew down the street , so I had almost nothing left. At about 5:00 I went ouside to turn my Halloween lights on. They were on about 5 minutes and bam! No power! My entire side of the street went out. I didn't sweat it because I figured they be back on in a few minutes. Guess what-- that didn't happen. FPL came about 6 and parked 3 big trucks right in front of my house. No one could really see us sitting in the driveway trying to hand out candy and then it got dark and it was very dark with no power. I was yelling -Come and Get Your Free Candy! Believe it or not, I had alot of people. I handed out alot of Flamingo Road Church cards and even got some people to say they would come and try it out. God held off the rain for us just long enough to pass out ALL my candy and ALL my FRC cards. Daniella didn't want to go this year so she hung out with me at home, while Cassidy(the alien) went with her dad(the other alien) around our block with some kids from the neighborhood. For those of you reading this that don't live in South Florida check out our churches website at http://www.flamingoroadchurch.com/ . We are starting a new series next week called The Domino Effect. You can watch Pastor Troy Live online teaching. Check the website for times. I promise you will learn something and you won't be disappointed.
