This Special Worship Service will start at 10:30am at the Fountain City Park. People are invited to bring their animals to the service as long as they are up-to-date on their vaccines and are leashed or crated/caged as appropriate. If someone would like a blessing for an animal that can’t be easily transported to the park (such as a horse, cow or other livestock that they couldn't bring) or is not safe around other animals, people can bring a picture of the animal or something the animal uses such as a harness. Children who wish can bring a stuffed animal if they didn't have a pet. So a snake in a closed terrarium is okay - however Pastor Deb will not be "snake-handling" or other reptile/insect/spider handling. People will be expected to clean up after their own pets and animals. Everyone at Hope Church Cochrane and St. John's Church is invited to attend. Bring lawn chairs or picnic tables are provided. Potluck to follow after service. There will be NO regular Worship Service at Hope United Church.
