Photos: Christ Church in Bloomfield/Glen Ridge Blesses Animals and Supports Animal Shelter

Furry, feathery and slithery pets were all welcomed yesterday at Christ Episcopal Church of Bloomfield and Glen Ridge as Reverend Anne Koehler offered a Prayer of Blessing for each animal. Outside the church, JAX, the church dog, once a resident of the Bloomfield Animal Shelter, joined the human volunteers with biscuits, treats and bowls of water for the canine and feline celebrants. Donations were accepted on behalf of the shelter.
