Order a Christmas Poinsettia

Advent is a time when we choose to honor and/or memorialize loved ones by listing their names in the bulletin during the Christmas season.

The cost to have a tribute "in honor of" or "in memory of" listed in the bulletins at Christmas is $20. You may pay by check, cash, or on the website here. If paying online, ensure that you choose "Poinsettias" from the drop-down menu.

The funds received will be used to offset the cost of flowers used to decorate sanctuary and foyers during the Christmas season. Monies received above the cost of the flowers will be donated to Trinity mission work.

The Deadline for receiving contributions is Tuesday, December 2, 2025.
