A New Leaf’s mission is to provide people with developmental disabilities and autism life skills, marketable job training through horticultural therapy, community-based vocational placement, and residential services to increase their independence and individual choices.

A New Leaf was established in 1979 to provide horticultural-related job training to adults with developmental disabilities. We began with one greenhouse and one staff, and we served two individuals. By 1980, A New Leaf grew to serve 13 individuals. In 1986, we built our first 12,000 sq. ft. greenhouse and vocational training facility. Then in 2013, we acquired Homelife Association. A New Leaf began operating two group homes and providing 24-hour assistance to individuals with developmental disabilities living independently.

Today, A New Leaf is honored to serve 325 individuals with developmental disabilities and autism through employment in six greenhouses, three retail centers, and community job sites, as well as students in the classroom and individuals in residences.

Each Easter season our parishioners are invited to honor and memorialize loved ones by making donations for the purchase of Easter lilies.  The parish Easter lilies are purchased from A New Leaf in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma and the proceeds benefit our Ladies CCW organization.

1.  Pick up an envelope in the vestibule;
2.  On the envelope, write the names of the persons you wish to honor and/or remember;
3.  Insert your donation in the envelope; and
4.  Place the sealed envelope in the collection basket.
