BIBLICAL GARDENS




Biblical gardens are cultivated collections of plants that are named
in the Bible. They are a type of theme garden that botanical gardens,
public parks, and private gardeners maintain. They are grown in many
parts of the world with examples in diverse places, including Japan's
Seinan Gakuin University Biblical Botanical Garden and the Missouri
Botanical Garden in the United States.

A list of plants in the Bible includes species of plants mentioned in
the Jewish and Christian scriptures. Other plants with associations to
the themes and subjects of the Bible are sometimes also included,
especially in areas with different climates. Additionally, some gardens
exhibit objects in order to illustrate Biblical stories or to demonstrate
how people lived in Biblical times.

HOW TO DESIGN A
CHURCH GARDEN




A church is a place of prayer and meditation. You can add a deeper
level of serenity to your prayer time by enjoying the sights and
sounds of nature when you create a church garden. These tips will
help you design a garden. Even a church with limited extra space
can carve a neat prayer corner for its parishioners by using at
least a few of these design ideas.



Designing Your Church Garden

Choose your location. Your church garden should be relatively close
to the church or at least connected by a pathway. Keep in mind your
parishioners while designing the church garden. Ideally they should
be able to access the gardens easily.

Select your focal point or points for your church garden. Starting
with a focal point will give you a place to begin after you have
marked off your location. You may want to a make a memorial stone
or a special piece of statuary your focal point.

Map out a walking path for your church garden. A walking path will
give parishioners a place to stretch their legs while they pray or
meditate. Decide which type of materials you will use for the pathway.
Some choices could be gravel, steppingstones of assorted colors or
even smooth pebbles.

Position a fountain somewhere in your church garden where it can be
listened to and enjoyed. Have a bench or place to rest located close
or within earshot of the fountain.

Add the other components to your church garden design. Include prayer
stones that feature inspirational words like "peace" written on them.
When placed on the ground of your prayer garden these prayer stones
will help intercessors focus on spiritual things. You might also want
to include meditation benches placed near special trees or bushes. A
small gazebo or pergola would also be a fun component to add to your
church garden.

Plant flora and fauna that are natural to your area. Be sure and include
lots of variety in colors. Include plants that are symbolic to the
Christian faith if they can grow in your area. Some of those might be
olive trees, fig trees and the Peace Lily.
