Garden Guild

If you’re one of the lucky people born with a green thumb (or wish you could be), consider joining our Garden Guild. This group works around the church grounds to maintain and beautify the campus. You will see them in the Memorial Garden trimming shrubs or pulling weeds as well as planting flowers in the old fountain near the church porch or tending the pots beside the lobby doors. They do their work without fanfare, finding peace in the quiet of nature. Obviously, the garden tasks change throughout the seasons, but there is always something that needs to be done to keep the place looking good. For example, the biggest chore in the summer months is watering -- we certainly couldn’t have beautiful grass and plants without water during an Alabama summer. It can take as much or as little time as you are willing to invest, and the “gardeners” would be thrilled to have an extra set of hands anytime.
