Description of Work:  The group works throughout the year to enhance the whole church interior using flowers, banners, and other appropriate decorative materials.  For big occasions like Christmas, Easter, First Communion, and Confirmation the whole group work together on the floral arrangements and all other decoration.  The group also works as a team for Palm Sunday, Harvest Thanksgiving, building the Easter Garden, and all other special celebrations.  We urgently need new members. Both men and women members are welcome.

Time Commitment Involved:   Members work on a two-week rota throughout the year in placing vases of flowers on the main altar and side altars and maintaining them. This means each member would be required to do this approx. 3 times per year.  The group holds planning meetings approx. 3 times per year.   A work night (approx. 3 hours) involving all members is arranged before Easter, Christmas, First Communion, and Confirmation. The Easter Garden is put in place on Palm Sunday, and this takes approximately 2 hours and involves the whole group.

Any special skills or talents required:  No special skills required.
