Easter Lily
Purchase a Easter lily to beautify the sanctuary on Easter Sunday, then enjoy it at home after the service. Only a limited quantity of Easter lilies from the Brookwood Community are available, so don’t delay! To purchase your lily sign up on the poster in the Narthex, placing your check (made out to St. John’s with ‘lilies’ written on the memo line) in the envelope on the bottom of the poster. The lilies cost $10 each. You may also place your check in the offering plate Sunday mornings.
The Easter Lily, Latin name Lilium longiflorum, is the traditional Easter flower. According to Biblical scholars, the Easter Lily was found growing in the Garden of Gethsemane.
