Plundered Garden

The Church garden, in city ministry, was the cause of much frustration. I joked that there was a reason my blog was not called Urban Ministry Gardens. As fast as we planted our garden, the public dug it up and walked off with it -- and that in spite of security fences and locked gates. I said to a deaconess once, “What happened to the orchid?” She said, “It was stolen -- of course.” OBSERVATION: This is one that got away (see the photo) -- it’s hard to steal a hibiscus tree!
