Thanks for the Gift - Laura Caravatt Throughout the seasons, spring, summer and fall, our church is graced with beautiful flowers. One might think they came from a florist, but that is not the case. They come from one person’s garden ... the garden of Laura Caravatt. We are so blessed to have Laura share her talent of growing and arranging flowers and this wonderful gift of beauty for us all to enjoy. Most of us do not have the green thumb that Laura obviously has, so it makes her gift even more special. Of course we will have flowers when Laura is wintering elsewhere, but the beauty of her homegrown touch will be missed. Thanks so much Laura for sharing week after week. Comments are closed.
