I never thought a pumpkin could be a means of transportation until I saw the movie Cinderella.You know the story: Cinderella was left behind by her wicked step-mother and step-sisters. She didn’t have a way to get to the ball. Fortunately, her Fairy Godmother magically created a way by turning a pumpkin into a golden carriage and friendly mice into the horses and coachmen. Problem solvedand a grand new adventure began for Cinderella as she made her fashionably late entrance to the ball!Ahfairy tales. If only we had the power to turn pumpkins into carriages imagine the places we might go!But what if we do have that power and just haven’t realized it? We don’t have a Fairy Godmother, but we have One who is even more amazing who can turn a yard-full of pumpkins into something far more valuable than coaches.In just a few more weeks a semi-truckload of pumpkins will arrive for our annual Pumpkin Patch.

Many church members and community volunteers will come together to unload the truck and set out the pumpkins for sale. Our members and friends will sit in a chilly tent and sell the pumpkins to individuals and families from around the area.So where’s the magic?The magic happens when we gather around the pumpkins before the sales begin and pray for the people who will be receiving them to be blessed and to know the love of God in this season.The magic happens when conversations happen. People who have never been to the church are greeted with a friendly welcome. Children have an opportunity to have some fun on a mini-hayride or get their picture taken with a straw-man.
