HIGH POINT, N.C., Oct. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Jesus' great commission tohis followers is: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of theHoly Spirit."

One company is trying to do that this Halloween with a very uniquecard.

Halloween is normally a time when children get dressed up andreceive lots of candy. Memory Cross, a Christian-based company,headed by Reverend Andy Lambert, is asking Christians to give theirTrick-or-Treaters the Good News of the gospel as well.

Using a very clever folding card that he developed several yearsago, Andy is asking Christian parents to not only hand out candybut to give kids this card which shares the gospel message in a waythat is nothing short of amazing.

The message on the card reads:

Free Candy! That's what Halloween is all about! Just dress up in acostume, say "Trick or Treat!" and get Free Candy! What could bebetter than that? God's Love! That's the sweetest Gift of all!

The rest of the message walks them through God's plan for theirlives and leads them to http://www.NeedHim.org if they want moreinformation.

If churches want to join in by inviting people to their church,Reverend Lambert has created the card so that information about thechurch can be printed on the back of the card.

When asked about the idea for the Halloween card, Pastor Lambertresponded, "Halloween is the only time of the year whenneighborhood kids come knocking on our doors. As a Christian, Iwanted to give them more than candy; I wanted to give themsomething that could change their lives forever. From this ideacame the Halloween Memory Cross. What makes this tract different isits unique design. When you put this card into the hands of kids,they will be fascinated with it and read it over and over."

Since parents inspect all candy, they too will receive the gospelmessage. The card is so unique that even people who do not believeagree that this card is a great way to get the message out. Oneresponse that was received upon showing the card was: "I receivedthe cards and was like a kid at Christmas. I showed them to all Icame in contact with and got the same reaction. I even took them towork and showed them to some nonbelievers. Their response was nodifferent. One young lady said, 'What a great way to get the Wordout.' I was astounded as to her response since she was not aChristian."

The cards are available at all LifeWay stores or on the MemoryCross website at http://www.memorycross.com or by calling888-738-5545.
