Sunday, October 6 at 10:30 am
Please join us for a special service at 10:30 am on the front lawn with prayers and blessings for all pets, even those who are no longer with us. Grab your leash, crate, cage, tank, halter, or bridle and join us! And if you can, bring a lawn chair or two!
Stuffed animal blessings
Kids are welcome to bring their stuffed animals for a blessing to this service, or to our 8 am service as well. Stuffed animals provide real comfort for children, and their love is very real, so we’ll celebrate and give thanks for that love.
We remember pets who are no longer with us
If your pet is no longer with us, you are welcome to bring a photo so that we can celebrate the life of your pet. We will remember all those creatures who have made our lives special.
Popcorn
Scout Troop 937 will be selling popcorn from 8 am – noon. You can buy some for yourself, family & friends, or even buy some to donate to 4Saints Episcopal Food Pantry! All proceeds help fund our Troop.
Rain & mud plan
If there is rain in our Sunday forecast, our worship will move indoors to the large, east parish hall in our Christian Education building. All your pets are welcome to come, though larger farm animals need to remain in their trailers & wait to be blessed outdoors after the service.
See our photos on Facebook.
Holy Creator, we come together to thank you for the fellowship of other creatures, to celebrate their God-given lives, and to pray for compassionate hearts so we may care for them and for all your creation. Amen
