The Flower and Environment ministry enhances our worship space for all our liturgical seasons and special feasts. Using banners, flowers, living plants, and liturgical vesture, the Flowers and Environment ministers emphasize our liturgical themes through the beauty of flowers and greenery, God’s earthly gifts. The beautiful flower arrangements that you see above were created by our parishioners. If you’d like to learn how to create arrangements or enjoy working with flowers then see the information below. Also, flower donations from your garden or from a florist for a special intention are always welcome!
