It’s spring and warmer temperatures and sunny days make us think of planting gardens, flowers, and trees. The Board of Mission is focusing on Arbor Day and taking care of God’s earth and His beautiful creation. The planting of a tree shows faith in the future. As Martin Luther said, “Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant a tree today.” He believed the fresh spring green of the trees was a symbol of Easter’s resurrection and the divine grace in earthly life. After worship service on May 3, the Board of Mission will be sharing hackberry and sugar maple seedling trees with those in attendance. If you would like a tree and cannot attend the service, please contact the church office.
