The conditions were excellent for the annual planting of flowers in front of the church on May 18^th – cool and slightly overcast in the morning and a lovely, warm sun in the afternoon. Our “Plant-a-Thon Team” was enthusiastic, capable and ready for the task. They did the planting; Creator God provided the watering and the growth.

Hopefully, our omnipresent deer will not interrupt the process by having breakfast with our lovely and luscious young plants!

Sincerest thanks in the name of the entire parish go out to: Gerry Altamura, Lee Lamb, Bill and Beverly Lutkens, Ruthann Norris, Don Patterson and Franz and Grete Scheidl for their most effective and generous assistance.

Thanks also to Virginia for providing a wonderful picnic lunch!
