Flowers express our love and appreciation, not only to one another, but also to God. And beautifying the church with flowers uplifts our spirits and can act as a focus for meditation.
However, flowers are traditionally removed from church during the season of Advent, in order that we may not be distracted from the essentials of our faith and so that the Christmas decorations may, by contrast, seem even more glorious.
Advent begins on the Sunday after next, so it's a good moment to express our appreciation to Dorothea and her team for their faithful hard work.
