Let Love Bloom

Last week, we shared a bit about why we do what what we do, and we promised to keep sharing about the details about what it will look like to walk alongside our neighbors in High Ridge. Here is our first step: 

We are planning a Spring Event, "Let Love Bloom."

We have given away oranges two years in a row, and this Spring we think we need to get a little dirt under our fingernails.

We're enlisting a little help from our friends.

This is Seeds of Grace's fourth year of ministry. Just as a four year old child starts preparing for school, we are preparing our organization for a new phase. We want to grow and become even more involved in the High Ridge community, so Seeds of Grace has been planning some new events, in addition to our regular Book Bus schedule, for this coming year.



On March 28, 2015, we want to "Let Love Bloom" in High Ridge with a flower giveaway. This Spring event was inspired by our winter citrus giveaway. During the past two winters, we have been honored to have someone contact us saying they had oranges they wanted to get rid of and asking us to give them away. Teri and I loaded up in one of our trucks and drove around some of our favorite streets around town (many of them happen to be in High Ridge), asking people if they would like some oranges. In some ways it seems like a silly thing, but the smiles on people's faces and the little conversations we had with people let us know that this was helping us build some relationships in the neighborhood. "Let Love Bloom" is just another way for us to say, "You are loved, and you matter." 

If you'd like to make a donation to our fabulous flower give away, please mail your donation to 6148 County Road 352, Keystone Heights, FL, 32656. Seeds of Grace is a 501c3 organization. 

And, if your a local reader, we'd love for you to join us for the day. Contact us on facebook
