Blessing of the Animals
Epworth UMC at Candler Park is hosting a Blessing of the Animals on Sunday, October 2 at 4 pm across from the church in Candler Park.
Receive: Klaus Darnall, a gifted photographer, will take photos of you and your pet. We hope to see other interesting visitors, including the City of Atlanta Mounted Police if they are free. Treats will be available for our “best friends” and plenty of water bowls and lemonade for all two legged beings! Blessing of the Animals by Pastor Lisa and all participants with Special Music by Pastor Rob and local musician Heidi Pollyea. All our animals will receive a personalized certificate to take home.
Give: Bring donations of canned food for cats and dogs to support P.A.L.S., an Atlanta-based non-profit that loves animals who provide pet-care including free food and basic veterinary care, and support to the companion pets of senior citizens as well as critically ill and disabled Atlantans.
Celebrate! Come and bring your family pets, leashed or in a secure container for their safety, and enjoy honoring them for the love and joy that they bring to our life.
