Hold a Blessing of the Animals event on the Sunday closest to Oct. 4, which is designated as World Animal Day, when churches throughout the world hold a Blessing of the Animals event. Invite the community to bring their pets and remind them that God loves all creatures, great and small. (Traditionally, Blessing of the Animals events were held primarily in Catholic churches, but many Protestant churches have started holding their own versions to reach out to their “pet-centric” neighbors.)

The Danger of Attempting It Alone
It’s not just unwise to be without a church; it’s dangerous. And the reason it’s dangerous is because we aren’t strong enough to go at life with Christ on our own.
Helping Youth Thrive Spiritually
What if we trained our young people to look at their university training as a four-year mission trip? What if we helped them approach their jobs as if they were missionaries to their coworkers?
