40 days of Lent - Plant a tree - but not today

Today's Lenten Thought -

March 25 - Express your faith in the future beyond your lifetime.  Make plans to plant a tree, in your yard, at church or in one of the country's forests through the Arbor Day Foundation.

Catty is on the list of Tree Cities in the United States.   You could always contact the Catasauqua Shade Tree Commission's to participate or sponsor a tree.

Through the Arbor Foundation you can also buy trees to plant - I have a friend that gets his trees from them - you can find them at

http://www.arborday.org/

You can also sponsor trees in one of  our Nation's forest at that site.

Another great site is  http://www.plantabillion.org/   Their slogan is One dollar. One Tree. One Planet. And their focus is worldwide,

A couple of years ago I planted a magnolia in our backyard and it is my favorite tree.  There is a large magnolia down the street and when it blooms it is breathtaking. 

Remember God gave us trees, it is only right that we pay it forward.
