Easter Lilies
Order by April 2
As we plan an explosion of Spring in the sanctuary for the Easter services, we invite you to purchase one or more of the Easter lilies used to decorate the sanctuary in honor/remembrance of a loved one or "to the Glory of God". Each lily plant is $15. You will be able to take your lily(s) home after the 11:00am Easter service. You just need to do two things:
- Email Heather at h.johnson@faithce.com with your name, the number of lilies you are purchasing, and the name(s) in honor/memory of. Please put an H or M in front of each name so we know the type of designation.
- Then pay your amount (number of lilies x $15) on Pushpay using the Holiday Plants Giving Type https://pushpay.com/g/faithchangeseverything?src=hpp OR by check, made out to Faith with Lily in the memo. You can drop off checks in the offering box in the back of the sanctuary or mail to our address: 6000 Morriss Rd, Flower Mound, TX 75028.
