Plant your own garden beginning today.

First plant five rows of peas:

    Preparedness

    Promptness

    Perseverance

    Politeness

    Prayer

Next to them plant three rows of squash:

    Squash gossip

    Squash criticism

    Squash indifference

Then five rows of lettuce:

    Let us be faithful

    Let us be unselfish

    Let us be loyal

    Let us be truthful

    Let us love one another

And no garden is complete without turnips:

    Turn up for Church

    Turn up for Sunday School

    Turn up with a smile

    Turn up with determination
