Blessing of the Pets

One of the most popular Downtown Worship Services is “The Blessing of the Pets”. Pets are indeed a very important part of our lives. Thus, Historic Trinity, located at 1345 Gratiot in downtown Detroit, invited all pet owners to bring their animals to be blessed at “The Blessing of the Pets.” The 2011 event was held Sunday, October 2, in each of the three worship services. The pets and their owners met in the tent set up in parking lot, they processed down the church aisle for the blessing, and then returned to the tent. Each pet handler will receive a St. Francis medal to mark this special day. The Rev. Dr. David Eberhard preached and was assisted by the Cathedral Pastors. Also, the Detroit Tiger’s mascot was present which made the day extra special.
