WEST VIRGINIA GARDEN CLUB COLLECT
Our heavenly Father, who created every flower, tree, and shrub,
we give Thee thanks.
By Thy Grace, through us,
may the beauty of gardens and nature be shared with all mankind.
Let us serve with open minds and warm hearts
determined always to seek the best.
Let us lose self in the love of beauty, sharing, and service.
Make us tolerant and understanding of each other.
This we ask in Jesus' name.
Amen
--Written by Mrs. Percy Gillie
