Blessing of the Animals - Denver Zoo and Montview Boulevard Presbyterian Church
On Sunday, May 22, 2016, Rev. Dr. Dee Cooper joined members of the Denver Zoo’s Animal Ambassadors collection for a special “Blessing of the WILD Animals” service at Montview Boulevard Presbyterian Church. The animals, which included a porcupine, Eurasian eagle owl and a Malayan box turtle, were walked to the church’s chancel by their handlers before being blessed as a group. The non-denominational, community event was meant as a celebration of life and all animals, honoring wild animals in particular. Afterwards, some animals and volunteers then remained to meet and educate the public and pose for pictures.
“Indeed no animals were left behind,” said The Rev. Dr. Dee Cooper.
Prayer Walk - First Presbyterian Church in Littleton
On March 6, 2016 more than 50 people from our congregation walked or drove the neighborhoods around our church. We didn’t promote any church events or hand anything out. We simply blessed our neighbors and tried to see our area through God’s eyes. Thank you to everyone who participated and I am excited to see what God will do in our hearts as a result! Maybe try prayer walking the neighborhood around your house and see what God reveals!
In Christ’s Service Together,
Pastor Cody
Thanks for sharing your story of joy with us!
