    EASTER FLOWER
    MEMORIAL

Each year our parishioners and friends are invited to participate in the "Flower Memorial Fund" where money received is used to purchase the flowers and decorations for our Church at Easter. A Memorial Booklet is prepared that lists your name and the names of those you wish to remember.

If you would like to remember your loved ones, please return the form below to the Rectory by Monday, April 5.

On Monday, April 12 many of the plants will be given to the sick and shut-in of our parish. In this way, they are able to share in the Easter celebration of Holy Cross. Thank you!

My name:
