Call for Animal Photos: Share Your Blessings
July 1, 2025
Our Blessing of the Animals service is coming August 10, and we invite you to be part of a special meditative slideshow honoring the animals who bring love, comfort, a
nd wisdom into our lives. This year’s guiding question is: “What has this animal taught you about love, resilience, or being present during challenging moments?”
Please share a photo of a beloved animal—this can be a current or past pet, a wild animal you’ve felt a strong connection with, or any creature that has touched your heart. Please include:
- A photo
- The animal’s name
- A short statementresponding to the guiding question
Send your photo(s) and reflection by July 13 to AnimalBlessing@ccuu.org. Let us come together in gratitude for all the creatures who walk beside us—through joy, struggle, and stillness—and celebrate the sacred bond we share.
