Theme: Planting Seeds
Due date: September 01, 2019
An obvious theme perhaps for this time of year, but let’s take the metaphor beyond the
garden. Who has planted fruitful seeds in your own life or that of your family? How did they
go about it? What kinds of fruit or product did they hope to bear? What about when seeds
did not grow as you hoped? Or take it another level to efforts to reach out to those in your
church, community, or larger society? Growing new ideas or paving the way for change,
justice, poverty, better education, family unity or ------ fill in the blank.
