A Calgary religious group is swapping the good book for gumdrops; the ‘Jesusween’ initiative encourages homes to hand out bibles as well as chocolate bars.
“Now Christians don’t have to be timid or be quiet or hide on that night. They can spread the word of god!” says Pastor Tim of the Gateway International Church.
The group says it’s their way of reclaiming All Hallows Eve.
“We give it out in addition to candy. Jesusween is not against candy or trying to hijack Halloween. Jesusween is about giving something more positive instead of all the gory images,” says Tim. |
Yeah, I'm sure it is not about trying to hijack Haloween.
That statement is probably going to be followed by "We're not trying to scare you into becoming a Christian" which would immediately be followed by the most scary descriptions of what they think "hell" would be like.
