Church Flower Ministry.
The purpose of this ministry is to take care of the flowers that are in church. This ministry makes sure that everything is beautiful in the church when it comes to flowers. This ministry waters the plants and flowers and it also removes any flowers that have past their prime. There are a lot of flower arrangements from weddings and funerals and for special occasions like First Holy Communion and Confirmation so it takes a lot of help to make everything look its best. There are also seasonal/holiday flowers in the church we take care of including our 40 hour celebration, Christmas and Easter.
To join this ministry reach out to Jackie Funk at jack772@verizon. There is a need for more volunteers. It is ideal to have two volunteers a week work on maintaining the flowers.
We have a beautiful church and the hard work of the Church Flower Ministry sets the tone for prayer and worship for all of us.
