Spring Church grounds-day 2024
Many weeds to pull and winter debris to clean out of the church flower beds.
The kids got to work with the grass under the front tree. Maybe they'll have luck getting it to grow.
Removing the old gravel was hard work for young and old.

Sisters In Christ Wild flower Walk-May 2024
Sisters in Christ took a walk in the Pecatonica River Bottoms to view the spring wild flowers.
Due to the early spring they missed the peak but there were still many blue bells throughout to make the woods a sea of blue!
They pause for a group picture with the Pecatonica River in the background.
