DESCRIPTION:Animals have a way of reminding us of what matters most: Be pre
 sent. Love generously. Find joy in the simple things. Rest when you need t
 o. And don’t take life too seriously!\nIn the spirit of the Feast of St.
  Francis\, we will celebrate the sacred bond we share with the animals in 
 our lives. In Unity\, we recognize the Divine Presence in all life—and o
 ur beloved animals often become cherished companions\, teachers\, comforte
 rs\, and healers.\nYou are invited to bring a photo of your beloved animal
  companion—framed if possible—and place it on our altar. During the se
 rvice\, Rev. Victoria will offer a blessing for the animals we love\, both
  those who are with us and those who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge.\nIf 
 you have a meaningful story about how an animal has touched your life\, br
 ought healing\, opened your heart\, or offered you a spiritual insight\, y
 ou are invited to share it with our community.\nFollowing the service\, we
  will gather in our Outdoor Sacred Space to create a special place of reme
 mbrance for animals we have loved and lost. We’ll paint our new little g
 arden bridge in rainbow colors and add stones to the sacred ground\, each 
 bearing the name of a beloved animal companion.\nCome celebrate the love\,
  joy\, wisdom\, and sacred connection our animal companions bring into our
  lives.
