Carve pumpkins, share special treats, and making new friends in a fun and safe environment.
Pumpkin carving is a fun, traditional fall activity in the States. Families gather together to share their creativity by carving their designs. Many people then use the carved pumpkins for decorations in their windows or outside their doors. Join IFI for the opportunity to create your own fall decorations and enjoy a meal featuring special fall treats, like apple cider and pumpkin pie.
We will provide the food, the pumpkins and the tools. You provide the creativity and company!
IMPORTANT NOTE: There is a Bible discussion during the Pumpkin Carving Event. Please contact the Group leader of the meeting you would like to attend by SELECTING THE GROUP below.
