WMSCOG | Riverview Park Cleanup and Flower Planting, City of Bellflower
ASEZ WAO volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God in Cerritos, Los Angeles, Orange County, and Torrance came together on Sunday, November 17, 2024 to host a Beautification Project & Park Cleanup at Riverview Park in the City of Bellflower. A total of 150 volunteers participated in the beautification project with enthusiasm and excitement to bring Mother’s love to the community. With the mind of Mother, ASEZ WAO volunteers fully embraced the idea that “We Are One” family and were eager to show sincere love to all humankind, starting with their local communities.
First, volunteers spanned the entire park to pick up any litter and plastic waste products that not only hindered the park’s aesthetics, but also posed a threat to the environment’s sustainability. Since the park was often frequented by residents and visitors, and was also inconsistently maintained, the area was susceptible to trash buildup. Thanks to God’s grace and united efforts, 60 bags of trash were collected.
In addition to cleaning the area, the ASEZ WAO volunteers worked in collaboration with the City of Bellflower Parks & Recreation Department, who provided the sod and plants to properly beautify the area. The volunteers joyfully took action to properly till the soil beds, lay the sod, and plant various kinds of plants and seedlings. Overall, 880 square feet of sodding was laid and 500 plants were planted in the former desolate space.
While the volunteers enthusiastically cleaned and beautified the park with bright smiles, local residents and passers-by expressed their gratitude for their efforts and shared how the renovated space created a happier and welcoming environment for all. Not only did the park look more inviting, but it also promoted a safe environment for people of all ages to enjoy.
