Blessing of the Animals and Remembrance Service for Beloved Pets

Sunday, October 6, 2024 at 2:00 pm


Join us in conjunction with Patricia Brown of Spiritworks and Susan Lara of Peace of Mind Pet and House Sitting in this celebration of the animals who bless our lives!

We invite you to join with fellow animal lovers in this dual remembrance and blessing

service. Our hope is that those who grieve pets will find comfort, and current owners will

enjoy celebrating the bond they share with their animal companion. We will also honor

the veterinarians, dog walkers and groomers, shelters and sanctuaries thanking them

for their kindness and compassion.

Cats, dogs, rabbits, goats, and all animals with whom we share this earth, hold a special

place in our hearts. The blessings we bestowed upon them and they on us fill our hearts

with gratitude for the gift of their presence in our lives.

Registration helps us in our planning, though drop-ins are welcome.
