From
the Director --
MorningStar
is Planting Trees!!!
Through
the generosity of Diaz Farms and O'Leary-Richards
Design, MonringStar has plans underway to be landscaped!
Though plans are only conceptual right now, Kathy O'Leary-Richards,
Landscape Architect and Nick Diaz of Diaz Farms have put some
exciting ideas together to bring about a variety of beautiful
prayer gardens joined together by a meandering path throughout
the property.
Both Nick
Diaz and Kathy O'Leary-Richards
are involved at MorningStar as both retreatants and volunteers.
Nick is an active Emmaus brother with the St. Louis Men's
Emmaus and has volunteered at MorningStar in a special work
project last year in which the St. Louis men's Emmaus
team established the Emmaus Rose garden, the landscaping in
front of the administrative offices, and the Dave Marley Fountain.
Kathy has attended numerous MorningStar programs over the
past five years and currently also serves as a member of MorningStar's
Advisory Council.
What a gift MorningStar
has in both Kathy O'Leary-Richards and Nick Diaz! Please
join us in prayer that our Lord will bless and assist us in
our efforts to bring about the beautification of His land
at MorningStar and that the land itself would invite people,
by how it's landscaped, to become closer to Him!
Amen
In Jesus, our Bright MorningStar,
Sue S. DeFerrari
