Lance blesses pets
Lance blessed gathered pets on Sunday, October 15. The late afternoon sun warmed the pets' owners as Lance led the ceremony, which included a litany, hymn, and prayer before the blessing of each animal present.
Pets this year included dogs and cats of all sizes plus a pair of parakeets. The assembled menagerie was a bit more raucous than last year.
Intrigued by our church sign's simple "Pet Blessing" announcement of the event, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution newspaper contacted the church and then sent photographers to cover this popular annual event, now in its third year. The Monday paper's Metro section (DeKalb) had a half-page photo story and the AJC online includes 7 photos of this event.
You can view the photo set at our Flickr album or see it as a slide show.
The AJC also covered the Pet Blessing in its DeKalb section on Thursday, October 19th. [free registration and logon required]
