New Tree on Dryden Road

Dear Parishioners: Peace and Good to you! We had a venerable, stately tree out on Dryden Road, centered between the Church and the School. The new construction “stunned” its deep roots, and the tree went to Tree Heaven this past summer. Putting in the new lawn and sidewalk harmed it. We are sad to see something so glorious go the way of all living things. However, we’ve recently planted a new one. It’s a Maple tree and already hardy, and welcomed among us. May it grow and prosper as had the others.
