161. Blessing of the Animals
Monday - October 5, 2026
Dan tells us all about the annual Blessing of the Animals, which included pets, our favorite ducks, and even a pet rock! But the day ended on a sour note for Dan’s daughter when she overheard some kids making fun of the boy with the rock.
Discussion Question(s)
• Is there anything that is special to you that might not seem like a big deal to anyone else?
Prayer
Dear God, we thank you for all of your blessings, whether they’re things that are easy to love - like adorable animals - or they’re things that may only be special to us. When we see things we don’t understand, help us remember to respond the way we would want others to act toward us - with questions instead of laughter. Amen.
