Okay but can we talk about the cutest little surprise in Auburn Pharmacy’s new Business Bloom Blessing video for a second…

Our “Happy Little Vases” officially made their debut and we are OBSESSED.

These tiny bundles of joy were curated by Elliott and me to bring a little extra happiness into everyday spaces. Each one is unique, cheerful, and designed to make people smile the second they see them.

And now… you can take one home for yourself.

Happy Little Vase pricing:
• Vase only — $25
• Vase + fresh floral bud arrangement — $30

They are currently available for purchase inside Auburn Pharmacy, and you can conveniently purchase using our LOTF QR code in-store.

Every purchase helps support the mission of Lilies of the Field and helps us continue delivering kindness through flowers throughout our community.

Tiny vase. Big joy. Countless lives touched.

Some chairs will sit empty today.

Some names will catch in throats before they ever leave trembling lips. Some mothers will fold flags instead of hugging sons. Some wives will trace old photographs with fingertips that still remember the shape of a hand they once held. Some children only know their hero through stories told around tables that still ache from absence.

While much of the world celebrates the long weekend, there are families carrying a silence that never leaves.

Freedom has always cost someone something.

John 15:13
“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

There is something sacred about sacrifice.
Something holy about choosing love even when it costs everything.

And maybe that’s why Memorial Day whispers so loudly of Jesus.

Because Heaven, too, once watched a Son leave home knowing He would not return the same.
He carried the weight of a world that would reject Him.
He stretched out His hands anyway.

The cross was not comfortable.
Love never is.

Today, may we remember that the freedoms we casually live in were paid for by people who never got to come home and fully grow old. Men and women who had favorite songs, inside jokes, dreams, unfinished plans, and people waiting at the window for them.

They were more than uniforms.
They were somebody’s answered prayer.

So before the fireworks fade and the grills grow cold, pause for a moment.

Thank God for the ones who gave their lives for earthly freedom.
And thank Him for the One who gave His life for eternal freedom.

May we never become so distracted by comfort that we forget the cost of peace.
And may we live in a way that honors both.

Not just with words.
But with how we love, serve, forgive, and carry one another through this life.

Today our Lilies of the Field family said goodbye to one of our quiet little coworkers… Muffins.

If you’ve ever volunteered in our warehouse, stopped by for flowers, picked up a Porch Petals bouquet, or visited our home, chances are you met him. He was usually somewhere nearby supervising the chaos, greeting people at the door, or quietly weaving between buckets of flowers like he owned the place.

And honestly… he kind of did.

Muffins was the cat who adopted us years ago and somehow became part of the heart of this ministry. He spent countless late nights in the warehouse with me while arrangements were being made and flowers were being sorted. He never really “helped,” but he was always there — leaning against my legs, sitting nearby while I worked, or simply keeping me company during the long exhausting nights that come with serving others.

Many of you know he suffered a stroke about a year ago. Since then, I’ve spent so much time trying to help him regain strength and mobility through breathing treatments, exercises, and physical therapy. He fought hard.

This morning, he crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

The warehouse feels a little quieter today without our sweet boy in it.

Thank you, Muffins, for years of comfort, companionship, and for loving every person who walked through our doors. You may have just been a cat to some, but to us, you were part of the story of Lilies of the Field.

You were deeply loved here.

Some people can tell you every w**d growing in someone else’s garden while their own soil is dry, cracked, and neglected.

They can point out every flaw.
Every failure.
Every place someone else fell short.

But gardens that are truly alive require too much work to spend all day inspecting somebody else’s rows.

Healthy gardens keep gardeners busy.

There are w**ds to pull in our own hearts.
Pride to uproot.
Bitterness to cut back.
Unforgiveness choking places God wanted to bloom.

There are seeds God told us to plant that we still haven’t touched because we’ve been too distracted watching everybody else grow.

The people most rooted in Christ usually aren’t the loudest critics in the room.

They’re the ones quietly staying in the dirt with God.

Pruning.
Repenting.
Growing.
Learning.
Watering the things heaven asked them to steward.

And the deeper I walk with Christ, the more I realize this:

It is easy to stand outside a garden and criticize what needs work.
It is much harder to kneel in the dirt and let God work on yours.

Galatians 6:4
“But let every man prove his own work…”

Maybe we don’t need another magnifying glass for someone else’s w**ds.

Maybe we need to ask God why we’ve stopped tending our own garden.

A gentle but needed reminder from Lilies of the Field:

If you call and we are unable to answer, please leave a voicemail.

Calling repeatedly back-to-back without leaving a message can trigger our spam protection system (“Robo Killer”), which may automatically move your number from missed calls to spam calls. If that happens, we may never even see your call.

Lilies of the Field is currently operated primarily by one person wearing many hats each day — cleaning and organizing the warehouse, washing buckets, coordinating flower pickups, arranging, deliveries, volunteers, social media, partnerships, paperwork, family life, and much more. I truly do my best to return calls and messages as quickly as possible.

We are so incredibly honored every time someone thinks of Lilies of the Field during one of life’s hardest moments. It means more than we can express.

However, after much prayer and consideration, Lilies of the Field does not accept funeral flower donations.

We know this may disappoint some, so we wanted to lovingly explain why:

• Funeral flowers often carry deep emotional attachments for grieving families. We never want anyone to later feel regret, guilt, or sadness over releasing something connected to their loved one.

• Many funeral arrangements are designed with foam, glued elements, keepsake pieces, or structures that do not repurpose well for our style of outreach and delivery.

• Timing and logistics are extremely difficult. Funeral flowers are often needed for extended services, viewings, or family gatherings before they can be released, which can greatly shorten vase life and impact the quality of what we are able to deliver.

• Most importantly, we believe funeral flowers already fulfilled a sacred purpose — honoring and celebrating a life well lived. We never want to unintentionally take away from that moment.

Our mission has always centered around repurposing celebration flowers from weddings and events to spread joy, hope, and kindness throughout our community.

We are deeply grateful for every person who has reached out to ask, and we hope you understand this boundary was made with love, wisdom, and respect for grieving families.

Ecclesiastes 3:1To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.

ONE flower donation can touch hundreds of lives…
…but none of it happens without people willing to help carry the mission forward.

Lilies of the Field Support Linktree

Every bouquet delivered has a hidden story behind it:
• late-night wedding pickups
• gas tanks filled
• buckets washed at midnight
• flower food, tape, snips, and supplies
• volunteers giving up weekends
• little hands helping pull carts and pass out flowers
• prayers whispered over arrangements before they leave our garage

We are not grant funded.
We are not backed by a corporation.
We are simply a community of people choosing kindness together.

And truthfully…
the need is growing faster than we ever imagined.

Here are some ways you can help us continue loving people well:

• Gas gift cards for our pickup and delivery volunteers
• Monetary donations to help cover ministry expenses
• A business partnership for volunteer/marketing t-shirts
• Items from our Amazon Wishlist
• Prayer for strength, provision, and wisdom

Every donation to Lilies of the Field is tax deductible as we are a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Galatians 5:13
“By love serve one another.”

We may be small…
but God has shown us over and over again that little is much when He is in it.

There’s something holy about creating beauty.

Maybe that’s why gardens calm us.
Why arranging flowers can feel like therapy.
Why painting, baking, decorating, planting seeds, or making something beautiful with your hands can quiet the noise in your mind for a little while.

Because we were created by a Creator.

Genesis 2:8
And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

The very first thing God made for mankind was not a city.
Not a stage.
Not a machine.

It was a garden.

Beautiful things remind us that God is still creating.
Still restoring.
Still bringing life from barren places.

And sometimes while you’re busy watering flowers, painting the room, planting seeds, arranging bouquets, or making beauty for someone else…
God is quietly restoring parts of you too.

The world tells us beauty is shallow.
But God fills His creation with it.

Wildflowers.
Sunsets.
Birdsong.
Gardens.
Fragrance.
Color.

Beauty was His idea first.

And maybe that’s why your soul feels lighter when your hands are creating something lovely —
because even in small ways, you are reflecting the heart of the Creator.

Mother’s Day is strange for some of us.

A day where the world dresses in pastel colors while some hearts quietly carry storms.

Some women wake up to sticky little hands and burnt toast on paper plates. Others wake up reaching for people they can no longer call.

Some are grieving mothers. Some are grieving children. Some are longing to become mothers. Some are learning how to mother while healing the parts of themselves that never felt mothered at all.

And somehow, all of them still get up. Still pour the coffee. Still answer the texts. Still fold the laundry. Still carry worlds no one can see.

That kind of strength is holy.

Maybe that’s why flowers matter so much to me.

Because flowers remind us that beautiful things can still grow after long winters.That even broken stems can be gathered up and made into something meaningful again.

So to the one barely holding themselves together today—the one smiling in photos while carrying grief in their chest—I hope you know this:

Your love mattered. It still matters. And nothing given in love is ever wasted.

Not the prayers. Not the sleepless nights. Not the sacrifices. Not even the tears.

Psalm 34:18The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

ONE FLOWER DONATION. COUNTLESS LIVES TOUCHED.

This week, we stewarded every stem to the absolute max… and we are overwhelmed with gratitude for every couple, florist, volunteer, and supporter who made it possible. What was once used for just a few hours at an event became days of joy, connection, comfort, and love throughout our community.

Just look at what ONE week of donated flowers helped us do:

• Table Top Blessings with our sweet friends at The Phoenix
• Business Bloom Blessings at Wild Flour Bakery
• Flowers on the Farm for the precious kids at Jenny’s Little Ranch Hands
• A Flower Bar at Morningside Assisted Living
• Flowers for a Mother’s Day Tea Party with The Harbor
• Porch Petals to continue loving on our community until the very last stem

This is why we do what we do.

Flowers that could have been thrown away became reminders that people are seen, loved, and not forgotten.

We may be small… but God continues to multiply every single donation in ways that leave us in awe.

Thank you for helping us turn celebrations into compassion and petals into purpose. 🤍
