On Pentecost Sunday, June 9, we will be filling the sanctuary with red geraniums. Red is the liturgical color of the day and represents the tongues of flame in which the Holy Spirit descended on the first day. If you would like to make a $5 donation toward these geraniums, please mark this on your offering envelope. Any contributions left over will be donated to the Soup Kitchen Fund. The geraniums will be planted around the church building. We are also asking everyone to wear RED for worship that day.
