NY Times Article On Christianity and Animals

Posted on October 15, 2011 by John

The October 15 edition of the NY Times has a wonderful article by Mark Oppenheimer on the fascinating of the love of animals and the Christian faith. We urge our friends to check it out. Here is a link which I hope will get you there: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/15/us/pet-ministries-are-growing-in-churches.html

    Hi,

    I attended your service to Bless the Animals last fall. Are you the Pastor of a Congreation? If so, which churh? I’ve been looking for a new church for awhile.

    Thanks.
