5. They Could Not

The Monologues:

1. Mary’s Introduction, Healed from Demon Possession, (Luke 8:1-3)

3. The Stone is Rolled Away, Peter and John Believe (Luke 24:1-12, John 20:1-9)
4. Mary’s Encounter with the Risen Lord, (John 20:10-18, Mark 16:9-11)

I chose to buy a Cypress Tree to have planted on the grounds because of it's biblical significance.

The book of Genesis describes God's commands to Noah to build an Ark of Cypress Wood, for the world had become violent :(

The Ark was filled with 2 of every living creature...and I have 2 beautiful children I'd like to dedicate this Cypress Tree for - May it be a visual reminder of God's Covenant to us after the flood.

May God's Glory Dwell in our Land.

Blessings,

Grace Safrin
