At Grace Lutheran, all people are welcome, and blessed by God. Once a year, we welcome animals of all kinds! In jest and in seriousness, Pastor Lura Groen agreed to bless dogs, cats, elephants, geckos imaginary puppies, sour dough starter, and chia pets.
On October 26
th, Grace members, friends, and neighbors are invited to Hyde Park with their animal companions. We will celebrate with a brief worship service, praising God with all creation, renewing our promises to care for the earth and all creatures on it, and then pray for the pets with us and in our hearts. Each animal will receive a blessing from Pastor Lura, thanking God for them, their love for their human, and asking God’s protections upon them.
We hope to see you and your faithful companion there!
