we worship: flower guild
"...servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, rendering service with a good will." Ephesians 6:5-7
Throughout the year, except in Lent, the Flower Guild graces the altar with fresh flowers. Flowers are shared during the year with the congregation: Geraniums are given to the children at Easter, poinsettias at Christmas and lilies at Easter for those who have lost a loved one that year.
The church is “greened” before Lessons and Carols and in full flower for Christmas services. Easter decorating takes place on Holy Saturday while the choir rehearses - a spectacular time to be in the church. The Sunday before Thanksgiving, the church is decorated with fruits and vegetables in a horn of plenty. Following the service, these foods are contributed to the Council of Social Concern.
This creative work enhances the worship experience for everyone. The Flower Guild is open to all who would like to learn about arranging flowers. New members are warmly welcomed and trained throughout the year. A great way to get involved is to help at Christmas and Easter.
Guild members have the peace and quiet of the church on Saturday mornings, with the joy of creating something beautiful.
