Easter Flowers 2021

February 27, 2021 By ClioBethany Leave a Comment

Once again it is the season to fill our sanctuary with the joy and beauty of these lovely spring flowers. You can be a part of this tradition by giving a plant in honor or in memory of some one special to you. We will be ordering the plants to be placed in the sanctuary on Easter Sunday, April 4th. If you wish to order a plant, please fill out an order form from the Tower Notes or in the office and return it to the church with your payment no later than Friday March 12th.

Please send a check for the Easter flowers separate from your regular tithe or offering. We are very hopeful that we will be in the sanctuary on Easter Sunday and you can take your flowers home with you from worship. If not, we will have times available for you to pick them up after Easter.

If you have any questions about Easter Flower orders, please reach out to Karen Nichols.
