Flower Communion Sunday
with The Reverend Gordon Clay Bailey & the Worship Associates Team |  |
For those of you new to our faith and unfamiliar with the Flower Communion tradition, there are many meanings behind it, one of them is that it’s our uniqueness that makes us beautiful and another message is that when we share that unique beauty with each other, we create something more beautiful that we could ever be alone. So for Flower Communion, usually we cut a flower and bring it in, make an amazing communal bouquet and then leave with a different flower.
