What is Trunk-or-Treat?

Trunk-or-Treat is a fun-for-the-whole family Halloween Alternative Event. Families are invited to come to the parish parking lot between 6:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 29th with your children to trick-or-treat. Our wonderful parishioners will be decorating their car or van trunks and passing out treats for all the trick-or-treaters who stop by (or you can team up with other parishioners or neighbors to decorate your car).

After you trunk-or-treat, please come inside the Social Hall and participate in games and crafts and enjoy some food. There will be prizes for the best decorated trunks and children’s costumes.
