Responsibilities and Membership
Growing Beauty and Community with Holli Rogers and the Flower Guild
For Holli Rogers, arranging flowers has never simply been about making the sanctuary beautiful.
It's an act of worship.
"I think it's one of the best contributions of my time and talents," she says. "It's a gift to God. It's an expression of my love for my faith."
Holli joined First Presbyterian's Flower Guild in 2012 and became chair in 2019. Over the years, she has discovered that the ministry is about far more than flowers. It is about offering beauty to God, serving people during some of the most significant moments of their lives, and belonging to a community that quietly cares for one another.
The Flower Guild: Responsibilities, Practices, and Member Directory
The Flower Guild plays a vital role in preparing our worship spaces with beauty, care, and intention each week. From selecting and arranging flowers for the Chancel and Narthex to coordinating weekly schedules and honoring memorials and special occasions, each member contributes to this meaningful ministry in a hands-on and faithful way. The Guild also extends care beyond Sunday mornings by preparing small arrangements for those who are hospitalized or homebound, reflecting Christ’s love through thoughtful acts of service.
This guide outlines the rhythms and responsibilities of the Flower Guild, including scheduling and team coordination, choosing and ordering flowers, creating arrangements appropriate for worship, caring for the Flower Room and supplies, and supporting one another in this shared work. Whether you are new to arranging or experienced, it offers helpful instruction, practical details, and guidance for serving well.
