Today we celebrated our annual Blessing of the Animals in honor of St. Francis Day at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer. When rain moved in we headed inside and brought the joy indoors. It was a heartwarming day filled with furry friends, grateful hearts, and reminders of God's love for all creation. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this cherished tradition so special.

Today was rain or shine. And perfect. “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” St Francis
