“A blessing of the animals” at Bethel Church

submitted by Jean Martin, Bethel United Church of Christ

“O LORD, how many are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all; Animals both great and small” (from Psalm
104).

Our four-footed friends have brought many blessings to us; now it’s our turn to extend God’s blessing to them. Bethel Church invites you to bring your animal(s) for a blessing on September 25, 2022 at 1:30pm on the Bethel lawn.

Please invite any four-footed friends that you might know; invite their two-footed comrades as well. Feel free to bring a photo if your animal can’t attend. For everyone’s safety, all cats, dogs, horses, cows, reptiles, and birds must be restrained by a halter, leash, carrier, or stock trailer. Also, please be aware that no animals will be allowed inside the church or social hall.

Bethel United Church of Christ is located at 10425 Bethel Church Rd. Find them online at www.bethelonthehill.org.
