| | Dates Open for 2026 Altar and Memorial Garden Flower Sponsors! | |
Would you like to donate altar flowers in celebration or honor of a loved one? Celebrate a birthday or an anniversary? We would love to honor your loved one in our weekly service. We have a standing flower order with Village Flower Company, and the cost is $50 to provide flowers each weekend for the altar.
Another way to provide flowers while helping out the Memorial Garden is by sponsoring the garden for a month. By making a donation of $25.00 during your chosen month, these funds help to buy perennials and flowers for the large planters in the garden. Donations may also be given to the garden in memory, honor, or celebration of a loved one.
Please call the church office at 913.432.5573, or email Phyllis Williams at phyllisw@visitasbury.org if you would like to sign up to help out with Asbury flowers!
