Blessing of the Animals
Bring your pets to the annual St. Francis of Assisi
celebration of God's creatures
Sunday, October 9, 2011
4:00 pm
We will meet under the shade trees beside Hensler Hall. Please bring a treats for people and pets. Be sure to bring a leash or carrier for your pets.
The prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy;
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Prayer of Commitment
by Marian Wright Edelman
God did not call us to succeed,
God called us to serve.
God did not call us to win,
God called us to work.
God did not call us to live long,
God called us to live for God.
God did not call us to be happy,
God called us to be hopeful.
God did not call us to fame,
God called us to faith.
God did not call us to seek power,
God called us to seek peace.
God did not call us to loot the earth and each other,
God called us to love our earth and each other. Amen.

May our prayers and discernment be in accord with the mission you have given us to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ.
