What a wonderful Blessing of the Backpacks this past Sunday! We had beautiful children with their backpacks all ready to return to school receiving a blessing for the school year and we also had another surprise! The cutest little dog you have ever seen decided she needed to be a part of the worship service too! So she came in the front door and trotted right up to the altar where all of the children were gathered for the sermon and was God's surprise for the day! She was so happy to be a part of the service that her little tail just wagged and wagged from all of the attention she was receiving.
When we at Republic UCC say "All Are Welcome" we mean it! May God bless our children and their teachers this week as they return to school and may God bless all creatures big and small. :-)
You can view the video of the blessing under the multimedia tab of this website.
May the love, peace and blessings of Christ be with each one of you this day.
