Reverend Salmon started a rather unusual service at Grace - the Blessing of the Pets.  Response to this occasion has been outstanding - and photo's of a few highlights of one of the events are shown below.  For those of you that read the Corpus Christi Caller Times, you may have noticed some of the publicity.

The pic above is my choice for first prize (if we had a contest!!).  I'll bet he has a new born alligator in that cage...

Mark and Missy.  Mark says she was a VERY big part of the family.

These wonderful pictures are all compliments of Arnold Ott (above) who came to show off his champion bulldog (heh). Arrff!!!

Horses go to heaven too!!

Spencer and Trevor Cook with the family dog and Spencer's new buddy.  The story behind this picture would take a lifetime to tell~

The Thrash family was a VERY important part of our congregation, and Mark is shown here with Debbie, Sarah, and their being blessed pet.

Marlana says `ditto' on Dad's comments on Missy.

The Wise family was there in the heart of things (as usual).

Kootchy Kootchy Koo!!

Watch out Mark, it might bite!!

And last (but not least) Bertha says "I hope y'all had as much fun as I did!!!" :o)
