This coming Sunday, October 4th, we will be having a Blessing of the Animals service at 4:00 p.m. The service will last about a half an hour and will include an individual blessing for every pet present in person or via photo. Pets of every kind are welcome at the Blessing of the Animals service, on leashes or in carriers. If you pet doesn't enjoy meeting new people or other animals, you can bring a picture of your pet to be blessed. Pictures on printed or on phones are fine. The service will be held outdoors, rain or shine. If its not raining, the service will be held in the courtyard. If it's raining we'll move to the Sanctuary porch. Please spread the word and invite others to this beautiful celebration of creation and the animals that bless our lives! (The pictures are from the 2024 and 2025 Blessings of the Animals.) ...
