One Last Cart Full of Blessings!

Our final Giving Garden cart of the season is filled with beautiful late-summer and fall blooms! Dahlias, zinnias, mums, ornamental kale, celosia, and more! Stop by, pick up some flowers, and be reminded of just how much God loves you! ❤️

As we wrap up another season, my heart is full of gratitude. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, shared a kind word, passed along flowers to brighten someone else's day, donated jars and vases, or added treasures from your own garden for others to enjoy. You are all such a blessing to me, and I thank God for each of you!

Looking back, I am amazed at God's provisions! This year, we were blessed to offer four community flower bars, share over 300 bouquets along with God's Word through Bible verse cards, and give away an abundance of beautiful, delicious produce to nourish our neighbors. What a joy it has been to share His blessings with our community!

We are already dreaming and planning for next year and look forward to seeing how God will continue to use this little garden to spread His love.

Above all, as we count our blessings, may we never forget the greatest blessing of all…Jesus Christ and what He has done for us. He died on the cross to save us from our sins so that we can live with Him forever. Flowers fade, gardens rest, and seasons change, but His love never ends. ❤️

"Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift." 2 Corinthians 9:15

Thank You, Lord, for another beautiful season of growing, giving, and sharing Your love!

Come and be blessed! 🌻

Start Your Week with a Little Blessing from the Giving Garden!

As the sun rose this Monday morning, we filled the cart with blessings from God. After being busy sharing flowers through several flower bars with local organizations recently, we’re excited to have beautiful blooms back on the cart for our community.

We have gorgeous dahlias, heirloom mums beginning to show their beautiful fall colors, and some lovely flowers gifted to us after our family celebrated a sweet baby shower. Thank you, Angie, for passing them along so they can continue to bring joy to others! ❤️

You will also find peppers, eggplant, and more generously donated Dicky’s Car Wash cards.

Stop by and start your week with a little garden treasure and a reminder of God’s goodness.

Come and be blessed!

One of the things I love most about the Giving Garden is how many of the vegetables on our cart are donated by others in our community.

There is something so beautiful about neighbors sharing with one another and enjoying the blessings of the harvest together.

Today, we received a wonderful donation of fresh tomatoes and jalapeños! Come and enjoy the harvest!

God is so good in His provisions and what a blessing it is when we can all be part of providing for one another.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day! We enjoyed some special time with family, a walk on this beautiful day, and, of course, a little time in the garden. We found some delicious garden treasures like tomatoes and a large variety of peppers and put them out on the cart, along with a few cheerful sunflowers to brighten someone’s day.

So, if you’re heading to work in the morning, stop by the cart and take a little piece of the garden with you! We hope it blesses you or someone you know.

What a blessing it is to work, to grow, to share, and to serve others with what God has given us. ❤️

🌸 What a delightful morning at Christian Care!

We spent the morning creating beautiful flower arrangements with the residents. One of the sweetest parts was seeing so many want to make an arrangement not only for themselves, but to share with a friend or family member. You all made us smile.

We had some flowers left over from our flower bar, so we created a few bouquets for our Giving Garden cart.

Stop by the cart and take a bouquet to enjoy or give away. God’s blessings to you all on the Labor Day weekend.

No flowers today, but God has filled the cart with beautiful, colorful produce! Isn’t He amazing in the way He provides for us? ❤️

Last Sunday’s sermon was about living generously, and what a blessing it is to share what God has given us with others. There will be a little something on the cart today to remind all of us to find a way to live generously. 💕 We encourage you to look for your own opportunities to serve, share, and be a blessing.

“You open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing.” — Psalm 145:16

Thankful for His provision and the opportunity to share!

What a beautiful day the Lord has given us!

The sunflowers are gorgeous, the dahlias are in full bloom, and the cart is filled with fresh garden goodness.

We are so thankful for the blessing of being able to grow, give, and share with our community. God’s provision is truly all around us! Just look and see His blessings that we use for His glory.

"You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing." — Psalm 145:16

Praise God for this beautiful day and all He provides! 🌻

🌧️It has definitely been a rainy week! So much rain… I think we’re all glad to see a little sunshine again today…even if it’s a bit on the humid side. ☀️

But the Lord provides always, and the garden is full!

The cart is filled with tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, and a few flower bouquets today. Stop by and take what you can use or share with someone else.

“You open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing.” — Psalm 145:16

So thankful for His provision and for the blessing of our community. ❤️

The flower bar with the Parks Department was SO much fun!

Thank you to everyone who came out and created beautiful flower arrangements to keep or share with someone special. Seeing all of your smiles and watching you enjoy the flowers truly made my day! 🥰
