Is this your tree?

Invasive vines such as English Ivy, Wintercreeper, and Asian Bittersweet can damage and eventually kill your tree.  The Vanderburgh County CISMA can help!  At no cost to you, they will treat a selected tree on your property to demonstrate how to manage the problem.

June 12, 2022~The Most Holy Trinity

In creative celebration of the Most Holy Trinity, pray a rosary with creation. Find a quiet place outside or sit near a window.

Setting aside a part of your lawn for a plot of wildflowers is a great way to help wildlife and add a unique kind of beauty to your home.  It is relatively simple to do and Tri-State Creation will show you how as well as provide the seed.

Our Common Home
Pope Francis in his encyclical, “Laudato Si”, urges us all to enter into a new relationship with the Earth so as to ensure the lasting well-being of all. Tom Bogenschutz, All Saints Staff member and co-founder of Tri-State Creation Care,
