Blessing of the Animals at OHPCUSA






“Blessed are you, Lord God, maker of all living creatures. You called forth fish in the sea, birds in the air and animals on the land. You inspired St. Francis to call all of them his brothers and sisters. We ask you to bless these pets. By the power of your love, enable it to live according to your plan. May we always praise you for all your beauty in creation. Blessed are you, Lord our God, in all your creatures! Amen.”

Roller Derby - Adult Fellowship!








It was a fun night at roller derby Saturday. Have you ever been? One of the women at our church plays in this roller derby league. Very cool. Our adult fellowship group, wandered out for a new adventure. We were impressed by their abilities and strength and the camaraderie and support the women gave each other. ( Great sportswoman ship as well!) Our favorite was MIDWIFE CRISIS. She's the greatest! Check out her DH cheering her on!
We'll have to do this one again, hope you can join us for all the action!
