ALTAR FLOWERS
"Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin.
Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor
was dressed like one of these (Luke 12:27)
Flower Dedications
Altar Flowers and Plants enrich our worship and remind us of God’s gifts of life and beauty. Flowers are present most Sundays, except during Lent when the altar remains bare, and during Advent when greenery is used instead. Special arrangements are provided for Easter Day and Christmas Day (see below).
Sunday Flowers
Flower dedications may be made in thanksgiving or in memory of loved ones. Two dedications are available each Sunday. A $25 donation is suggested, and donors may take the flowers home after the service. Please mark donations “Flowers” whether given in the offering plate or through the DONATE link above.
Dedications must be submitted by the Monday before the chosen Sunday to appear in the bulletin. If your preferred date is full, please select another or arrange a swap and notify the office.

Christmas & Easter
Christmas and Easter bring an abundance of flowers and plants to our worship space, filling the church with color, fragrance, and joy. These feast‑day dedications are a cherished way to give thanks or remember those who have died.
A suggested offering of $10 supports each dedication. The flowering plants—azaleas, palms, ferns, hibiscus, and other varieties suited to our climate—are planted on the church grounds after the season, becoming a lasting sign of God’s presence among us. Please mark donations “Christmas Flowers” or “Easter Flowers,” whether given in the offering plate or through the DONATE link above.
