There are times in the life of a parish where small acts of creativity point to a larger reality. Now at St. Paul's is one of those times. A small, but faithful group of folks has been quietly planting flowers around the property.

This might not seem like much, but consider this quiet ministry of beauty in a world that is so often cruel and harsh. In a quiet, but real way, these flowers testify to our life as a community of faith. Beauty is indicative of the reign of God.

Each one of these flowers says, "Come away and rest a bit. Relish the moment...be still and know that I am God." A hearty muchas gracias to all those who have made the effort to plant a flower, tree, or shrub on our grounds as a sign of God's gracious goodness.
