Come, Glorify the Lord with Flowers:
Workshop, Lunch & Fellowship, This Saturday.
Fr. Craig and Valerie Hanks have a reminder for all of us about one of the ways you can serve the Lord here at CCA. The Flower Guild is hosting their annual workshop this Sunday at 10 a.m. to bring together both experienced designers and those who are considering joining the Flower Guild. They will enjoy lunch with a time of fellowship beginning at noon. No experience is necessary. Only a love of flowers and God.
The Flower Guild also manages the Flower Memorials and some dates remain for 2023. Contact the office for more information on Flower Memorials/Thanksgivings available dates.
The flowers shown below were given last week to the glory of God and in memory of Mary Swan (Crowther) Sprague and William Wallace Sprague Sr. by Larry and Mary Ellen Sprague.
