St. Pio Parish

Garden Group

"He who plants and he who waters work to the same end. Each will receive his wages in proportion to his toil. We are God's co-workers, while you are his cultivation, his building." (1 Corinthians 3:8)

The Garden Group is responsible for:

• Maintaining our parish gardens, including planting, watering, weeding, and pruning.

• Continue landscaping the labyrinth area.

• Planning and implementing future beautification efforts.
   

4 good reasons to join are:

1. Many hands make light work!

2. This is an easy way to make friends and make a visible difference to our church.

3. We appreciate and encourage all skill levels - from "green" beginners to master gardeners and landscapers.  We'd love your help.  Even if you can't kneel or don't like to get your hands dirty, you can still help us with planning and/or fundraising.

4. Enjoy God's gift of Nature.  Pray or meditate while you work.

We invite you to come and find tranquility and relaxation as you spend some time exploring our church, grounds, and labyrinth.

Labyrinth:

The labyrinth is a sacred symbol that has been used by many cultures and religious traditions throughout the world. Modern labyrinths have only a single path to the center and back, and are not meant to be difficult or confusing. This makes them very helpful for achieving a contemplative state, through prayer, meditation or simple relaxation.
