ACC is sponsoring our 3rd annual Blessing of the
Animals and Pet Adoptions to bless and celebrate the many creatures that bring
joy into our lives. Local rescue organizations will have animals for adoption. You will truly see one of God’s miracles as
over 30 cats, dogs and a horse watch Rev. Dr. Tony Clark, D.V.M., M. Div. in silence while he offers prayers over the animals (although the tortoises tend to ignore him).
Jaima Roberts is setting up the ACC booth with displays on
our outreach programs such as, Spirit and the Arts and the Heifer Project.
Ann Ramsey’s horse, Stetson, will again be selling kisses
for $1.00. CCC Animal Care and Control
will give low cost shots and micro-chips and will register dogs with amnesty, and
their veterinarian will answer any questions you might have. There will be
demonstrations by the El Cerrito K-9 Police Dog, ABC Dog Training, Guide Dogs
for the Blind and the Wildlife Foundation.
