Instructions

Seeds need water, vitamins, light, and someone to take care of them to grow into a plant or a tree. When we water the plant regularly and take care of it, we are reminding ourselves to take care of creation thus our friendship with God who is Lord of all creation.

Take a seed and hold it in your hand. Notice how small it is.
Plant the seed in the pot.
Pray to God to help you understand the importance of taking care of the plant and all creation.
Now, take the pot with you at home and take good care of it by watering it so you will see it grow into a beautiful flower.
