Sunday Worship: Blessing of the Animals
Rev. Jeremiah Lal Shahbaz Kalendae, preaching
Cassie Winters, Worship Associate
Join us as we celebrate our beloved animal companions in our annual multigenerational St. Francis Day Blessing of the Animals service. You are invited to bring your companions with you to the sanctuary on Sunday for a blessing and some treats! We join with congregations across denominations in this special time of reflecting on the blessings they bring to our lives and our commitment to a ministry for all beings! After the service, we will build and decorate a Sukkah for Sukkot in the courtyard with our friends at the Santa Monica Synagogue. All are welcome! (St. Francis Day Oct. 4) (Sukkot Oct. 6-13)
Music: Saunder Choi, music director; Ryan Humphrey, pianist
Join us for Sunday morning worship in our historic Sanctuary at 18th and Arizona, online or in-person.
Our monthly Generous Congregation Contribution represents 50% of our non-pledge Sunday offerings. In September, our offering supported the Santa Monica Area Interfaith Council, and our October offering will support the Westside Coalition.
