Trees provide provide shelter. Tall and strong, they have deep roots. They reach skyward.  They lose their leaves and grow new ones...bear fruit...enrich the air we breathe.  With nurture and care, they can be a gift for generations to come.  A beloved symbol in cultures and faiths around the world, the Tree of Life links the heavens, the earth, and all that is hidden and growing beneath.  It seemed only natural to adopt it for pastoral counseling and learning programs promoting spiritual, creative and personal growth for people of all faiths and beliefs.
