Sunday’s Worship is led by Catherine Dill
Sundays’s service is the Blessing of the Animals, and is a wonderful celebration of all of God’s creatures. You are welcome to bring your animals in to receive a blessing. We have found that most animals do well in Worship but if you are concerned your animal will not do well, you may instead bring in a picture for a blessing.
