Counting Our Blessings<br />
Holy Trinity, Southport celebrated Harvest Festival this year by<br />
collecting money for Water Aid. Our church is large and lends<br />
itself well to large arrangements. We were, therefore, able to<br />
exercise our imaginations around the Water Aid theme.<br />
The main arrangement at the High Altar was designed to contrast<br />
life in First and Third World countries.<br />
The ‘watery’ blues to the left of the arrangement represented the<br />
abundance of water we enjoy.<br />
By contrast, the right-hand arrangement made use of an orange<br />
and red palette of materials, flowers and dried foliage to represent<br />
the hot, seared earth we associate with many countries and, in<br />
particular, those on the African continent. There were no lifesaving<br />
water bottles here!<br />
