Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity.
Margaret D. Nadauld
The congregation is the largest Episcopal church in NJ, and one of the largest in the country.
I was honored that I could use my talents to arrange flowers for the glory of God. I learned so much about flower arranging, and had been told on numerous occassions that I had a great eye for design.
I also had been chosen on several occassions to do the flowers for events the church held at the University Chapel at Princeton University. The chapel is a magnificent space, large in scope so the florals needed to match. It was a huge honor and I hope that I lived up to it.
I am not one to brag, but it was a great time in my life. I was able to combine my passion for the sacred and God, with a love of crafts and beauty.
