The following story comes to us from team leader Zach with our team in New River Valley, VA:
This All Hallows’ Eve, my wife and I decided to stay in with our young son. However, that did not stop us from evangelizing a little! Our extraordinarily low traffic street received only a few trick-or-treaters. We passed out a grand total of two KitKat bars and two rosaries with a pamphlet or two. One young girl even forewent the candy for the rosary, despite being offered both. Amazing!! Our Lady’s gift was by far the sweetest thing in the bowl.
Praised be Jesus Christ!
