Trick, Treat or Catechesis?

October 29, 2009 in Events, Faith & Religion, Online Games | No comments

My wife’s relatives in Ayala, Alabang invited us for a Trick or Treat even this coming Halloween. We were so excited thinking that Tifa could finally attend a real Halloween Trick or Treat event. We were in China last year so, even if she was able to wear her pumpkin dress, there wasn’t a Halloween event that we could go to.

However, my wife let her see a YouTube video from last year’s Halloween party in Ayala, Alabang and guess what – she was so scared that she never even wanted to hear the words trick or treat. This is already so not unexpected since we all know that she’s afraid of any Jollibee or Mc Donald’s mascot so what more to those Halloween creatures. This is all because of Pride detergent’s mascot – the first ever mascot that Tifa saw in person.

Speaking of Halloween, the Our Lady of Lourdes Parish priests in Tagaytay have a very different approach for this trick or treat event. They want the kids to come in their Biblical/Religious costumes.

And according to a staff of Kubo ni Maria, the Capuchin Priests’ souvenir shop, a catechesis will follow after the event to correct the kid’s perception of the Halloween – that this is a Catholic event and not a time for scaring people, or something like that. According to the staff, “they want the kids to associate the ‘Woman in White’ to Virgin Mary instead of the ‘white lady’.”

What do you think?

Anyways, Hachiko the Ninja Dog is having a Halloween Masquerade Ball on his right-wing garden in Pet Society. He’s asking everyone to drop by and turn off the switch at the right end of the room for a better effect.

A typhoon was devastating the land so the kids were not able to go trick-or-treating. They were only able to go as far as this:
