The Seventh-Day Adventist Church held an open-air service at Miriam C. Schmidt Botanical Garden in St. Eustatius on Saturday, January 9.
The venue was changed for the New Year. Pastor Earl Esdaile Jr. conducted the service, which was attended by many persons. The botanical garden was named after the late Miriam Schmidt, a staunch advocate for protecting Statia’s environment. She was one of the founders of St. Eustatius National Park Foundation STENAPA.
