The Blessing of Animals

Oct. 04, 2020 at 11:00 am Rev. Stephen Robinson

Sunday, October 4, is the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi in the Christian tradition, commemorating his death on October 4, 1226 in Portiuncula, Italy. One of Saint Francis’s greatest contributions to spirituality is the awareness of our relationship with all of the animals in the web of existence around us. What an appropriate day for the UUCC to celebrate the blessings that animals bring into our lives and celebrate our interdependent relationships with all these friends.

Linda and Richard McLeod, Members

We were looking for a church where we felt accepted both intellectually and spiritually, a place where all people and religions were regarded equally without condemnation. Our search began at UUCC six years ago and we never had to look any further. We found our place here with a community of like-minded people and it became our second home, our second family.

This is a place where I can always find big smiles, warm hugs, and stimulating conversations. It is easy to get involved and quickly become part of the group.

“A church where skepticism is welcome and adherence to dogma is suspect? A church where all religions are invited but none are beyond introspection? A church that regularly presents nationally touring singer-songwriters? A church where half the congregation might have been at Hunter-Gatherer the night before? Now that’s a church we can support.”
