Blessing our pets

Couple walking dogsDoes your family have a beloved family pet?

Perhaps you may want to mark Sept. 13 on your calendar.

The Central Oklahoma Humane Society has partnered with  churches to hold a series of free pet blesings in Oklahoma City area.

The fall blessing is set for 10 a.m. to noon Sept. 13 at United Methodist Church of the Servant, 14343 N MacArthur. The blessing will take place in the church’s east parking lot.

Five ministers from the church will offer individual blessings for each pet that attends the event and each pet will also receive a blessing certificate as a memento of the event.

The pet blessings are part of the Humane Society’s Humane Education, a public outreach and education program intended to teach people about the importance of animal welfare.

For more information, call 286-1503.
