This Friday, October 4, folks in the Christian tradition celebrate the life and ministry of Saint Francis of Assisi. Saint Francis was noted for his special relationship with all of God's creation, especially the birds of the air and the animals that walk the earth. As a way of celebrating his legacy and remembering our own connection to ALL God's creatures, we will be hosting an animal blessing service in the yard at Grace United Methodist Church (the church with the stone wall) this Sunday, October 6, at 1:30 p.m. Bring whatever animals you want to bring and let us offer a blessing over them. All are welcome!
