Two of the many PUMC traditions during the Easter season involve flowers:\u00a0 Daffodils and Lilies.\u00a0 The pots of mini-daffodils are sold during lent to raise money for the American Cancer Society.\u00a0 And Easter Lilies are sold to beautify our sanctuary (and our own homes or to brighten up the homes of shut-ins) after the Easter service.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Despite the Coronavirus, these traditions continue!<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ordering<\/span><\/h3>\n

Usually, we can order Daffodils or Lilies simply by filling out one of the order forms that are inserted in the Sunday bulletins. Write out a check and drop it in the offering plate along with the completed form.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But this year- things are gonna be a bit different!\u00a0 In person services are cancelled and there are no bulletins.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the order forms are available right here!\u00a0 Click on one of the below buttons to open the order form.\u00a0 You can then fill it out and mail it to the church office (along with your check).\u00a0 Or, you can check the “Coronavirus\u00a0Updates<\/span><\/a> page” on this website for office hours and drop it off in person.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Pick Up<\/span><\/h3>\n

Once your order is placed, you can wait until the designated Sunday to pick up your flower after church!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Oops…<\/span><\/strong> that’s probably a bit different this year too.\u00a0 At this point, we don’t know if the church will be open for “in person services” for either of those dates.\u00a0 But, somehow- we’ll get your flowers to you!\u00a0 Stay tuned to this post or to the “Coronavirus\u00a0Updates<\/span><\/a> page” for announcements on how and when this will be done if either of these services is cancelled.<\/p>\n

It’s been announced that there will be a curbside distribution of the Daffodils on Sunday March 29 between 11:30 to Noon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div>\n
