April 20, 2025 Diane Larson - Flower Power

Gary Kowalski, delivered by Diane Larson

Flower Communion symbolizes the light and color and fragrance of many creeds, many cultures, and many races joining together in a bright, living bouquet.  It is a testament to the power of love to withstand hate.  The flowers we share this morning bring us the assurance that warmth and kindness can pierce through frost of cruelty and indifference, that mercy and decency will blossom, that goodness has deep roots and will prevail.  What seems most fragile and perishable is most persistent and enduring.
