Usually we reserve tracts for Tuesdays. It makes for nice alliteration, \u201cTract Tuesdays.\u201d<\/p>\n

Today we\u2019re making an exception because it\u2019s Halloween and what better opportunity will you have to convert literally dozens of souls than tonight when they come so willingly to your doorstep?<\/p>\n

Tonight, you could be generic, boring, and old fashioned, handing out candy to the trick or treaters that knock on your door.<\/p>\n

Or you could be original, exciting, and cutting edge and hand out religious tracts instead! (Or apparently both is also an acceptable option)<\/p>\n

With help from the American Tract Society<\/a> you can Light-Up-the-Night<\/a><\/em>\u00a0with Jesus (because he\u2019s \u201cthe light\u201d, get it?) by handing out inspirational (and sometimes copyright infringing) tracts like\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cPeek A Boo: Jesus Loves You\u201d<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cFinding Your Way Home\u201d<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a><\/p>\n

Or the also unabashedly copyright infringing \u201cToy Story 3\u201d<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019ll only be a few hours before trick or treaters are knocking on your door, so ask for extreme rush deliver and get your neighborhood saved tonight!<\/p>\n

**Note: All tract images are property of American Tract Society, except the cover images found in \u201cFinding Your Way Home\u201d and \u201cToy Story 3\u201d which are not actually their property to sell**<\/p>\n
