Blessing of The Animals

Many of us have pets that we absolutely love and are essential to our home being “home.”

Lakeshore, an Ecumen community in Duluth, was the site of a great ecumenical Blessing of the Animals service. 

The service was led by Rev. Alice Olson, chaplain at the Lakeshore and Bayshore communities; Lakeshore resident Monsignor Patrick McDowell; and Rev. Cy Solberg, who doubled as St. Francis of Assisi. 

Pretty neat seeing the march of cats and dogs of all sizes walking, prancing and trotting into the Lakeshore chapel.  Here are more photos:
