ALTAR FLOWERS are given to the glory of God by Ann Price in loving memory of her husband, Wilford Price, and in celebration of the birthday of her sister, Jerutha Garrett, on 8 April.
CELEBRATING GOD’S LOVE The additional arrangement of roses on the altar are from some of the more than 140 roses on the campus of Historic First Lutheran. They are a reminder of God’s continuing love for us.
