| At Trinity,
the Flower Committee is a very active subcommittee of the
Altar Guild. Made up of
several members, it rotates responsibility for preparation of the altar
flowers -- as well as flowers for the oblation table in the back of the
church, for a small table outside the sacristy, and for flowers on the
children's altar -- among its members.
On the fourth Sunday of Advent each year, it enlists the aid of the larger parish family in what have become major events in the life of the parish: "The Greening of the Church" -- and, after Christmas, the "De-greening of the Church"
Click on the picture above to see a Trinity Kid (and her grandmother) helping with the De-greening of the Church in 2005! |

Just getting started |
No reason why the kids can't help... |
No reason at all! |
Nope, no reason at all! |

|
Let me at 'em! |
Well, it might be a little bit difficult... |
Nonsense! I'm ready! |
A few years, we said that Hayley was "helping" Malcolm. This year we can honestly say that Malcolm is helping Hayley! |

The adults were left the task of adding the garlands |
...once the kids got the heavy work done. |
"Oh well, I guess I can help with this too..." |
The Senior Warden was color-coordinated for this task! |

Jeremy received a decoration for his efforts |
Meanwhile, in Walker Hall, another crew was decorating the Christmas tree |
but the crew in the Nave was about done! |
Guess who else got a decoration! |

Come visit us at Trinity Lime Rock and see the flowers in person!
