Christ Our Shepherd Lutheran Church invites everyone to bring their pets to the annual Blessing of the Animals Service on Sunday, Sept. 27, at 2 p.m., at the church’s campus at 411 Palmetto Road. After a brief service, each animal will receive a personal blessing from Pastor Fritz Wiese or Pastor Miriam Beecher. Mementos of the occasion and treats will be offered. Shown above at last year’s blessing is Pastor Miriam Beecher blessing “Butters,” owned by Sara Kahley. The site at 411 Palmetto Road is the western-most property in Fayette County, on the Coweta County border, formerly Camper’s Paradise. For more information, call 770-487-8717. Photo/Special.
