You are invited to donate altar flowers for Sunday worship. Arrangements (generally two) are $40 per Sunday and may be donated to honor loved ones or to mark special celebrations such as birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, baptisms, etc. Flowers may be picked up at the close of late worship each week, or Monday between 8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. You may also donate the flowers to local care facilities or shut-ins by notifying the church office.
