Blessing of the Animals

It’s time for our annual, multigenerational worship service where we honor and share the animals who share our homes, lives, and families. All pets are welcome! Last year, we had cats and dogs, fish and lizards, even a chicken! So come one, come all – just please make sure your pets are appropriately leashed, crated, or otherwise contained. If you can’t bring your pet, virtual pets (stuffed animals, photos, etc.) are also welcome as proxies. If you lost your pet in the past year, feel free to bring a framed photo that we can stand on the pulpit table during the service, to honor those loved and lost. And last, invite your friends and neighbors to bring their pets for a blessing, too! All are welcome for this morning of music and readings, consecration and celebration.
