    We put up a big plastic sheet with "Happy Harvest Day," and carve a cross with light beams on tall pumpkins which show up great in the dark! Usually type up a gospel msg. to go with and dress up. We have over 200 kids in our subdivision which we enjoy. This year I will do your fish & cross, I love it! Thx & luv!

    Thanks a million for your carving suggestions. Our family love to carve Christian pumpkins and needed new ideas. It's become our family tradition and a testament that the message of Christ can be seen on a day used to celebrate evil.

    Thank you sooooooooooo much for this post. For years I have looked for a way to connect Christ to our pumpkin (if my husband had his way we wouldn't observe this day at all). We have always made happy pumpkins and all our costumes are happy and friendly characters. Great links to the children's poems as well! What a great way to display the Lord's Light on the darkest night of the year :)

    Cool idea. Just did some carving with my sons and grandsons. 3 generations carving pumpkins....life don't get much better than that. Nice lens.

    I am a Christian and though have always made a point of keeping my pumpkins smiling, it never occurred to me to do something like this...my children are grown, but the kid at heart may just want to do this sometime for the children that come to the door. I absolutely love this!

    I have been given the challage of carving a pumkin in showing some form of the creation for our world. Any ideas on how i can make this happen, any stenciles you guys know of?

    1 Pumpkin? It seems to me you'd need 7!

    The church stencil is just great! I'll have to encourage some of these around our church.

    That is a very interesting concept to put Christian Halloween carvings on a pumpkin. I bet they can really turn out great.

    Great lens. I loved it. We don't celebrate Halloween and have never been sure how to use this American holiday for the glory of God!
