ALTAR FLOWERS are given to the glory of God by Charlie Freeny in thanksgiving to God for His many blessings and in loving memory of the birthday of her mother, Evelyn Wrenn.
A REMINDER OF GOD’S PROVISION AND LOVE The extra bouquet of roses on the altar are from the 140+ roses around our church campus. They are a reminder of God’s eternal love for us.
GREEN PARAMENTS The beautiful green paraments adorning our altar, lectern and pulpit were lovingly donated in memory of Marsenlane Parker.
